© by Michael Condran

Ingredients

  • Ripe Bananas 2, mashed
  • Coconut Milk 1¾ cups
  • Unsalted Butter 3 Tbs, melted
  • Light Brown Sugar 2 Tbs
  • Eggs 2 large, beaten
  • Pure Vanilla Extract 2 tsp
  • All-Purpose Flour 2 cups
  • Sweetened Shredded Coconut ½ cup
  • Baking Powder 1 Tbs
  • Kosher Salt ½ tsp
  • Ground Cinnamon ½ tsp
  • Freshly Grated Nutmeg ½ tsp
  • Vegetable Oil or other neutral oil, for cooking
  • Pancake Syrup for serving
  • Sliced Banana for serving

Cook it

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the mashed bananas, coconut milk, melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the flour, coconut, baking powder, salt, cinna­mon, and nutmeg.
  3. Add the banana mixture to the flour mixture and stir with a silicone spatula until combined.
  4. Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C).
  5. Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes. Add about 2 Tbs oil to the pan. Scoop ¼ cup of batter into the pan. Repeat, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
  6. Once the pancakes begin to form bubbles on the surface and the edges have started to brown lightly, about 4 minutes, flip and cook until the other side is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer the pancakes to a sheet pan and place in the warmed oven until ready to serve. Repeat the process until you’ve used all the batter.
