How To Make Banana Foster Pancakes
Mix the sifted flour, salt, sugar, baking powder and baking soda in a deep bowl. Use a whisk to stir.
Pour the buttermilk into another bowl and add the eggs, vanilla extract, half of the cinnamon, and melted butter. Whisk.
Now carefully pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir with a whisk until you get a thick homogeneous dough without lumps.
Heat up the pan. Pour the batter into a large glass and pour a small amount onto the hot surface. Fry pancakes for 2 minutes over low heat.
Peel the banana and cut into slices. Cut the nuts into small pieces (or large crumbs).
Put sugar, ground cinnamon and butter in a saucepan. You can also add some coarse salt. Heat over low heat for a few minutes until you get caramel.
Place bananas and nuts in a saucepan, stir, and remove from heat.
Top the pancakes with the caramel sauce and serve warm.
Tips:
- Use a ripe banana. It’s softer and will soak up the sweet caramel sauce better.
- Use brown cane sugar to make the sauce tastier.
- To make pancake dough faster, you can use a hand mixer, especially if you’re making a large batch of these. If you don’t have much dough, then a hand whisk will do.
- Try making salted caramel using coarse sea salt or salted butter. Besides pecans, by the way, any nuts will do. You can even use nut mix.
