Breakfast For Dinner??

You Betcha!

This may look like a bowl of nasty. It's not. It is however a bowl of delicious banana pancake batter!

Banana Pancakes

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon white sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 egg, beaten

1 cup milk

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 ripe bananas, mashed

Directions:

1. Combine flour, white sugar, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, mix together egg, milk, vegetable oil and bananas.
2. Stir flour mixture into banana mixture; batter will be slightly lumpy.
3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Cook until pancakes are golden brown on both sides; serve hot.

However..
I am not really one for following rules. (I also made half the recipe.) But I made a few changes. I used brown sugar instead of white, I only put in a little splash of milk (because I had 2 frozen ripe bananas that were very gooey so I didn't figure I needed the extra liquid.) I also didn't put in the vegetable oil (but only because I completely forgot) Then I added some oatmeal (to soak up some liquid)... Oh yeah and a half a cap of vanilla.

They turned out pretty darn good if you ask me.

We had some extra ripe peaches in the fridge, and frozen strawberries in the freezer. My favorite thing to have on my pancakes is homemade fruit sauce.
All you have to do is take your favorite kinds of fruits, dice them up.
I threw them in a small sauce pan added maybe a tbsp of brown sugar, a tiny bit of vanilla, the juice from half an orange and a splash of lime juice. Bring to a boil, lower the temp to min.
Scoop over your pancakes and ENJOY!!





Here is the final product. With some orange slices, scrambled eggs and hash browns. It was delicious and VERY filling!!

Turns out it was a success!!

Happy Eating y'all!!

LOL. That is ALL that needs to be said!

OKAY.

So here we are sitting on the 'couch' and Alex finds a link to this video on his twitter posted by @mblairregina
