This recipe makes 10 medium pancakes, perfect for feeding a large family or enjoying throughout the week. The mashed bananas add just the right amount of flavor without overpowering the pancakes. That’s always a concern of mine when using bananas in foods like smoothies, muffins, or these pancakes as they can easily dominate the flavor. However, the ratios in this recipe are simply perfect!
In my family, we have children with egg allergies, which can make breakfast tricky since classic recipes like pancakes typically include eggs. I’m grateful for easy swaps that allow my kids to enjoy these delicious eggless banana pancakes.
Ingredients
- All-purpose flour: This type of flour adds to the fluffy “light” texture.
- Milk: I recommend whole milk. It has more added fat and results in a richer, creamier taste.
- Bananas: The star of this recipe. You mash them up to include in the batter. You can also slice some up to top the pancakes.
- Cinnamon: The perfect flavor to compliment the bananas.
- Baking powder: To get that beautiful rise.
- Unsalted butter: I always prefer to use unsalted in baking/cooking.
- Vanilla: For the perfect flavor.
- Salt: Enhances the flavor.
How to make banana pancakes without eggs
Whisk together wet ingredients in a large bowl: milk, melted butter, vanilla, and mashed bananas. In a separate medium sized bowl, whisk the dry ingredients together: flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
Slowly combine dry ingredients into the wet and whisk together until well combined. Preheat your griddle or skillet to medium heat or 350 degrees and then butter it to prevent sticking. I recommend using a 1/4 measuring cup to pour. Let each pancake cook about 2 minutes prior to flipping. You are looking for bubbles on top of the pancake and the edges to be nicely formed (not too runny) prior to flipping.
Why you will love this recipe

- You want your batter to not be too runny (which spreads out way too much on the skillet) or too thick (so the inside won't cook).
Cook on skillet or griddle
- Heat to medium heat. On the griddle I cook mine at 350 degrees.
- Butter your griddle. I like to take a stick of butter and just rub it directly on the skillet.
- Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to pour the perfect sized pancakes.
- Let the pancake cook for about 2 minutes per side prior to flipping. Look for bubbles to form on the top and the edges of the pancake to be formed.

Great flavor! My family loves topping them with sliced bananas and pure maple syrup.
