Ingredients
- Ripe bananas
- 2 large, mashed
- Egg
- 1 large
- Milk
- 1/2 cup
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- All-purpose flour
- 1 cup
- Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon
- Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Fresh berries
- 1 cup, for serving
- Maple syrup
- for serving
- Cooking spray or oil
- for greasing
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
- Add the egg, milk, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix well until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray or a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
- Scoop about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the greased air fryer basket, spacing them apart to allow for expansion.
- Cook the pancakes in the air fryer for 5 minutes. Carefully flip them over and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the basket as needed.
- Serve the air fryer banana pancakes warm, topped with fresh berries and a generous drizzle of maple syrup.
Tips
- For extra indulgence, add chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter before cooking.
- Try substituting half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
- If you prefer a sweeter pancake, feel free to add a tablespoon of brown sugar to the banana mixture.
