Start by gathering everything you need. A ripe banana is essential. Overripe is actually better because it’s sweeter. Also, ensure your eggs are at room temperature. This step is crucial for achieving fluffy pancakes.

In a bowl, peel the banana and mash it with a fork until it’s smooth. Don’t worry about a few lumps; they add character! This process not only prepares it for mixing but also releases natural sugars.

Add the eggs to the mashed banana and beat them together until well combined. The colors will blend, and it’ll resemble a lovely creamy mixture. Next, toss in the baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until everything is nicely incorporated.

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. If you want, toss in a bit of butter or coconut oil to grease the pan. Once it’s hot, pour in about a quarter cup of the batter. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until you see bubbles forming around the edges. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes until golden brown.

Plate your pancakes warm and start with your favorite toppings. Fresh fruits, honey, or a sprinkle of nuts—anything goes! Enjoy the satisfaction of creating something delicious and nourishing.
