I love banana pancakes, but my hubby- who usually makes the pancakes complains that adding the banana makes them harder to cook through, and more easy to burn. I had NO trouble at all with these not cooking through, nor with them burning. THey turned out very yummy- moist and tender, but cooked and lots of flavor. Didn't make the topping- my kids think pancakes are a finger food. Next time I will add some frozen blueberries!

We made these for lunch today as there were some bananas in the fruit bowl looking a bit sad !! Pancakes were delicious and not nearly as heavy as I expected. I did not make the caramelized bananas due to time constraints but will next time - we ate the lot just with butter and they were fabulous so thankyou Cookiedog
