Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas and then mix in the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the banana mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Cook Pancakes

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Pour 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter as needed.

Salted Caramel Sauce Preparation

  1. 5

    Melt Sugar

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the granulated sugar. Stir continuously until the sugar melts completely and turns a deep amber color.

  2. 6

    Add Butter

    Once the sugar has melted, carefully add the unsalted butter and stir until melted and combined.

  3. 7

    Incorporate Cream

    Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring. Be cautious, as the mixture will bubble up. Stir until smooth.

  4. 8

    Season with Salt

    Remove from heat and stir in the sea salt. Let the sauce cool slightly before using.

Assembly & Serving

  1. 9

    Stack Pancakes

    On a plate, stack 2-3 pancakes. Drizzle generously with the salted caramel sauce.

  2. 10

    Garnish

    Top with sliced bananas, a dollop of whipped cream, and a sprinkle of extra sea salt to taste.

  3. 11

    Serve Warm

    Enjoy the pancakes warm, with additional caramel sauce on the side if desired.
