Recipe
Ingredients
- 80g Tooke flour
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 egg
- 120ml milk or oat milk
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Small pinch salt
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Mash the banana until smooth, then whisk in the egg and milk.
- Add the Tooke flour, baking powder, and salt, then mix until no dry pockets remain.
- Rest the batter for 5 minutes so the flour hydrates evenly.
- Cook small pancakes on a lightly oiled pan over medium-low heat until both sides are golden.
Tips for Best Results
- A short batter rest improves texture and helps the flour absorb liquid.
- Keep the heat moderate so the center cooks before the outside darkens.
- If the batter feels too thick, add a little milk one spoon at a time.
Variations
- Top with yogurt and fruit for a lighter breakfast plate.
- Add cinnamon for a warmer, dessert-like aroma.
