Banana Pancake Brunch
Our weekends are completely centered around our families. Saturdays are spent with my side of the family and Sundays are spent with Jeremy's. I feel so lucky to be so close with our families - Jeremy with mine and myself with his.
Typically, we go out to eat with Jeremy's mom and grandma but this Sunday I felt like staying in - so I offered to make them brunch. We ate banana pancakes and scrambled eggs while we discussed life - food, travel, and the big picture stuff - like babies.
Whole Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes
2 cups stone-ground whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 cups buttermilk
2 mashed bananas
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus 1 tablespoon extra for brushing skillet
Powdered sugar
1 sliced banana
100% pure organic maple syrup
Heat a well-seasoned cast iron pan over low-medium heat (until a drop of water sizzles on it).
Mix your dry ingredients in one bowl and your wet ingredients in another. Slowly stir in your wet ingredients into the dry until just mixed - do not over mix. Batter should be a little lumpy.
Pour 1/4 c of mix into the skillet at a time (I fit about 3 4" pancakes in my skillet at once). Let batter get bubbly before flipping. Be patient. Keep warm in the oven at 175F until ready to serve.
Top with sifted powdered sugar, sliced bananas and maple syrup.
Note: I think mixing oatmeal and pecans into this recipe could be quite delicious.
You officially made me hungry with those pancakes! Yum.
In the big picture, there's nothing better than having a baby ;)
Love that you guys are so close with your respective families. Definitely priceless!
