It has been a while since I did a breakfast post, so today I am rectifying that oversight. These banana pancakes are simple to make and very tasty. The subtle sweetness and light banana flavor fires on all cylinders.

And the best part, this recipe makes a single stack of pancakes – just enough for one – which means you can skip the breakfast diner and enjoy a tasty breakfast in the comfort of your home!
