Ingredients:

  • 1 cup rice flour (120g)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup milk (240ml)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus more for cooking)
  • 2 ripe bananas, sliced
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup (120ml)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine rice flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and melted butter.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined (a few lumps are okay).
  4. Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake.
  6. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Carefully flip and cook until golden brown, another 1-2 minutes.
  8. In a small saucepan, combine sliced bananas, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using).
  9. Heat over low until warmed through and the bananas soften, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  10. Stack the pancakes on plates and drizzle with banana maple syrup.
  11. Garnish with extra banana slices or nuts if desired.
