Ingredients

9 total
  • 2 bananas, mashed
  • 2 tsp of baking powder
  • 2 large of eggs
  • 60 g of plain or wholemeal flour
  • 1 tsp of olive oil
  • 2 tsp of passion fruit curd, for the topping
  • 1 dollop yoghurt, for the topping
  • 1 handful of coconut flakes, for the topping
  • 1 passion fruit, optional for the topping

Method

5 steps
  1. Step 1

    Place the mashed bananas in a mixing bowl, add baking powder and eggs and whisk until combined and frothy.

  2. Step 2

    Add the flour bit by bit until the batter is slightly thicker than normal pancake batter. If it’s too thick, add a little milk.

  3. Step 3

    Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add a little oil to coat the pan. Then spoon in about 3 tbsp of batter per pancake and lower the heat. Cover with a lid to help the centres cook.

  4. Step 4

    Cook for 3-4 mins, then remove lid and flip. Cook for 3 mins more, until the underside is golden. Keep warm in the oven until all the batter is used.

  5. Step 5

    To serve, top with the curd, yogurt, coconut and fresh passionfruit if you have it – it’s at its best at this time of year.
