Banana Whole Wheat Pancakes



This is so YUMMY. I made it for dinner tonight while Quinn and Levi were gone. I doubled it and served it with Cinnamon Vanilla Syrup.

2/3 c. unbleached flour
1/3 c. whole wheat flour
2 tbsp. sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 egg, beaten
2/3 c. milk
2 tbsp. butter, melted
1 banana, mashed

Mix together dry ingredients. Add beaten egg, milk and butter. Add 1 mashed banana and mix until well blended, but lumpy. Pour desired size pancake onto a medium-hot lightly greased or buttered griddle.

NOTE: You can make the dry mix ahead of time and then just add the wet ingredients to 1 cup of the dry mix.
