These banana pancakes are packed with so much flavor, including cinnamon and nutmeg. After all, that’s what makes banana bread so good so why not transfer that deliciousness to these pancakes. Check ou the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.

It holds it all together and adds a thick, rich flavor.Baking Powder: helps them fluff up and stay puffy.Salt: This enhances the flavor of the pancakes. White Sugar: This adds in a sweet flavor to go with the bananas. Brown Sugar: This adds in a tiny bit of extra sweetness. Cinnamon: This goes perfectly with the banana flavor. Nutmeg: I love the nutty, earthy flavor in these pancakes.Milk: The milk helps to bind all of the ingredients together. Vanilla Extract: This adds in a splash of extra flavor.Bananas: Make sure that you use overripe bananas… The riper, the better!Butter: This adds in so much flavor! Pecans: The pecans are perfect for topping these banana bread pancakes to add a little bit of texture!

How to Make Homemade Banana Pancakes
You can whip these pancakes up in a jiffy. Just don’t eat all of the batter before you make them. It will be tempting but trust me when I say that the finished product is worth the wait!
Chocolate: Try adding some chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, or Nutella to the pancake batter.Nuts: I already love pecans on these pancakes, but I also think that walnuts, candied nuts, and cashews would taste delicious. Fruit: Who doesn’t like the combo of banana and some berries? Try some raspberries, cranberries, blueberries, or strawberries on top! Coconut: Sweetened shredded coconut is insanely delicious on these pancakes.Syrup: I love homemade syrups on my pancakes! Try this maple syrup, this homemade caramel syrup, chocolate syrup, or some classic buttermilk.
Blend the ingredients: For a smoother batter, place all of the ingredients in a blender instead of whisking them. Let it rest: The batter does best if you give it some time to rest before cooking it on the skillet. This will activate the leavening agents and help to thicken up the batter.Non-stick skillet: For best results, using a non-stick skillet will help your pancakes cook throughout.Butter: A little butter or non-stick grease is great to add to the skillet before pouring your batter on so that your pancakes don’t stick and flip easily. Preheat the Skillet: You will want to make sure that your skillet is warm to hot before you pour your batter on it. That way, they will cook evenly throughout the pancake.When should I flip them? Once the middle begins to bubble up, the pancakes are ready to be flipped.Keeping them warm: If you are planning to make these a little ahead, keep them warm and fresh by simply placing the cooked pancakes on a baking sheet and place in the oven at the lowest temperature (around 170 degrees Fahrenheit. When ready to serve, pull them out of the oven.
