Coconut-Banana Pancakes image

Coconut and banana pair up in a heavenly way, especially for breakfast. Enter these delectable pancakes, in which a bit of coconut flour is swapped for the usual all-purpose flour. A generous helping of banana lends a rich creaminess to the cakes. Be sure to have extra butter to drizzle on top, and you'll probably want to double the recipe. They're that good.

Time 15m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup/64 grams coconut flour
1 1/2 cups/180 grams all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons/37 grams sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons/6 grams baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons/9 grams baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
2 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs, brought to room temperature
3 tablespoons/42 grams unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups bananas cut into 1/2 inch slices
Vegetable, canola or coconut oil for the skillet

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Whisk flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and kosher salt together in a mixing bowl. Using the whisk, make a well in the center. Pour the buttermilk into the well and crack eggs into buttermilk. Pour in the melted butter. Starting in the center, whisk everything together, moving toward the outside of the bowl, until no dry bits remain. Do not overbeat. (Lumps are fine.) Fold in banana slices. The batter can be refrigerated for up to 1 hour.
  • Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet, preferably cast iron, over low heat for about 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Turn heat up to medium-low and using a measuring cup, ladle 1/3 cup batter into the skillet. If you are using a large skillet or a griddle, repeat once or twice, taking care not to overcrowd the cooking surface.
  • Flip pancakes after bubbles rise to surface and bottoms brown, after about 2 to 4 minutes. Cook until the other sides are lightly browned. Remove pancakes to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet, and keep in heated oven until all the batter is cooked and you are ready to serve.
