Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 banana, sliced
- 1/2 cup raspberries
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, 1 egg, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir the mixture with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Fold in the sliced banana and raspberries into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed without breaking them apart too much.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. If desired, lightly grease the surface with a small amount of butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Once the skillet is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
- Serve the pancakes warm, stacked high, and topped with additional raspberries, banana slices, and a drizzle of maple syrup or honey if desired.
- Enjoy your delicious Raspberry and Banana Pancakes!
Tips
- Don’t Overmix: When combining the wet and dry ingredients, mix just until combined. Overmixing can lead to tough pancakes, so a few lumps in the batter are perfectly fine!
- Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, opt for fresh raspberries and ripe bananas. They not only taste better but also enhance the overall texture of your pancakes.
- Adjust the Heat: If your pancakes are browning too quickly, lower the heat slightly. Cooking them at medium heat allows them to cook through without burning.
- Keep Them Warm: If you’re making a large batch, keep the cooked pancakes warm in a low oven (around 200°F or 90°C) while you finish cooking the rest.
- Creative Toppings: Elevate your pancakes with toppings like whipped cream, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for an extra special touch!
