Notes
- For even more banana flavor, consider adding small banana slices to the pancake batter just after pouring it onto the griddle.
- To make your own buttermilk substitute, mix 3/4 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice. Let it sit for a few minutes until it curdles before using.
- Use medium-low heat to prevent the pancakes from browning too quickly on the outside while remaining uncooked inside.
