Have ever since I heard it.
However many years ago.
And I've always thought:
I need to make them.
This morning I googled banana pancakes.
One site said to just add mashed banana
to your pancake batter.
Huh!
Easy enough.
Logical even.
I use the same pancake recipe that my mom does.
Why mess with a good thing?
They are delicious.
Even the next day.
Cold.
So, I just added one mashed banana.
We like our pancakes little.
And, for all of us but Ryan,
the syrup must be on the side.
No soggy pancakes.
Logic would say a pancake recipe is coming.But if I were logical,
I wouldn't have had to google banana pancakes
in the first place.
So, here's the syrup recipe.
We call it eggnog syrup.
It's given name is nutmeg syrup, though.
Nutmeg Syrup
1 c. sugar
2 T flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 c. cold water
2 T butter
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. rum extract, optional
In a large saucepan combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and water until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in the butter, vanilla and rum extract.
This stuff keeps in the fridge indefinitely.
And will make nearly any pancake taste good.
You family will think you're a gourmet cook.

You make your own syrup?! Wow. You are a gourmet. I'm impressed.
LOVE that song - LOVE Jack! He's coming to KC again - 3rd Monday in August - we're not sure if we can pull off a Monday, but we're trying.
My mom made us these kind of pancakes- with mashed banana all the time when we were little. She also just sliced them and stirred them in the batter too - so yummy!
And YES, you are a gourmet if you make your own syrup - impressive!
