On buttermilk and bananas

Not sure what to do with an over ripe banana and that last bit of buttermilk?

Ring, ring

"Hello?"

"Hi there, it's Mr. Obvious calling for Ms. Pancakes..."

Peanut butter chocolate banana buttermilk pancakes

(serves 4)

Ingredients:

1 cup flour

1 1/4 tsp baking powder

¼ tsp tsp baking soda

1 tbsp sugar

¼ tsp salt

3/4 cup buttermilk

1 large egg

3 tbsp butter, melted

1 large ripe banana, thinly sliced

¼ cup President's Choice new Mini Peanut Butter Melts (note: Yum!)

a touch of butter or oil for cooking the pancakes

maple syrup

Method:

In a medium bowl blend together dry ingredients, then mix in remaining ingredients until combined. Batter will be thick.

Heat large frying pan or griddle over medium heat and fry pancakes in batches (they should take a few minutes per batch.) You’ll know they’re done when they’re golden on both sides and cooked through. Drizzle with a touch of maple syrup and enjoy.
