Ingredients

For the topping:

  • 1/2 c. creamy peanut butter, warmed
  • 2 tbsp. mini chocolate chips optional
  • slices of banana optional

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In a small mixing bowl, add the buttermilk, mashed banana, brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Lightly beat until combined.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined, being sure to not overmix. Lumps make for fluffy pancakes! You may need to add a tablespoon or two of additional buttermilk to get the right consistency.
  • Allow the batter to rest for 10 minutes, meanwhile, place a large pan over medium heat and add ½ tbsp. of butter. Scoop the batter out using ⅓ measuring cup and pour into the center of the heated pan. Allow the pancakes to cook approximately 2 minutes or until you see small bubbles on the surface of the pancake. Flip, and cook for 1-2 additional minutes. The pancakes should be lightly golden brown in color.
  • Drizzle melted peanut butter between layers of pancakes. Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips and top with banana slices, if desired.

Notes

Warm your peanut butter by adding it to a microwave-safe mixing bowl and heating on half powder for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
