Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Buttermilk Banana Pancakes
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth, retaining a few chunks.
  3. Add buttermilk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and egg to the banana. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; lumps are okay.
  5. Lightly grease a skillet and preheat over medium heat.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet and sprinkle sliced bananas if desired. Cook until bubbles form.
  7. Flip pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown and fluffy.
  8. Stack pancakes on a plate, drizzle with maple syrup, and add toppings as desired.
