Whole Wheat Soymilk Banana Pancakes Food

WHOLE WHEAT BANANA PANCAKES

Steps:

• If you're using an electric skillet, preheat it to 350 degrees Fahrenheit now. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Whisk to blend.
• In a smaller bowl, combine the milk, mashed banana, egg, maple syrup, butter and vanilla. Whisk until blended. Pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture and mix just until combined.
• If you are not using an electric skillet, heat a heavy cast iron skillet or nonstick griddle over medium-low heat. You're ready to start cooking pancakes once a drop of water sizzles on contact with the hot surface. If necessary, lightly oil the cooking surface with additional butter or coconut oil, carefully wiping up excess with a paper towel (nonstick surfaces likely won't require any oil).
• Using a 1/3-cup measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the hot skillet, leaving a couple of inches around each pancake for expansion. Cook until small bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes, 2 to 3 minutes (you'll know it's ready to flip when about 1/2-inch of the perimeter is matte instead of glossy).
• Flip the pancakes, then cook until lightly golden on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil and adjusting the heat as necessary.
• Serve immediately or keep warm in a 200 degree Fahrenheit oven. If desired, top individual servings with a spread of peanut or almond butter and/or sliced bananas, and serve with more maple syrup or honey on the side.
• Leftover pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, stack leftover pancakes and wrap them in a paper towel before gently reheating in the microwave.

WHOLE WHEAT BANANA PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mash the banana very well. Whisk in the eggs, soy milk and vanilla until smooth. Alternatively, you can add all the ingredients in a blender.
• Stir in the whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt until combined.
• Melt butter or margarine in a skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, pour some of the batter, according to your desired pancake size. I made 5 pancakes, using about 1/4 cup of batter each.
• Cook about 3 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through. The pancakes will be golden and almost crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
• Top with toppings of choice. I like to serve them with nut or seed butter and mashed berries.
