i went my entire life without eating banana pancakes, until i came out to hawaii. freshman year we went to hukilau cafe after a camping trip, and i had my first banana pancake. singular, because their pancakes are the size of mattresses. who knew making them is as simple as tossing some sliced bananas in the batter when they're on the griddle? the best part is when they caramelize on the bottom.
i use the buttermilk pancake batter and put several banana slices on each pancake before flipping them over on the griddle. it helps to butter in between flips so the bananas don't stick.
