1
Lightly grease a frying pan with olive oil on a medium heat, then turn down to medium low and let the temperature settle
-
2
Mix the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt together in a bowl.
-
3
Instead of the rice & oat flours I used you can use 280g or a scant 2 cups all-purpose or gluten-free blend of choice
-
4
Mix the milk, syrup, vanilla and oil together in a jug then add the mashed banana in and stir to combine
-
5
Stir the liquid into the flour until just combined and the mixture is the consistency of thick cake batter (adding more milk if required)
-
6
Taste the batter to see if you want to add more syrup.
-
7
The more spotted or blacker skinned the bananas you use, the sweeter your pancakes will be
-
8
Pour 1/2 a ladleful of batter per pancake into the frying pan and spread into a neat circle with the back of the ladle
-
9
When the batter is dry around the edge and covered in small air bubbles it's time to turn them over, around 2 minutes
-
10
They should be an even brown.
-
11
The other side will cook a bit faster but use your fish slice / spatula to pat them down a just little so you don't have an uneven rise

Stack on warm plates and garnish with sliced banana and some maple syrup
