Banana Pancakes

These are super yummy!

INGREDIENTS
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons apple sauce
2 ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS
Combine flour, white sugar, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, mix together egg, milk, apple sauce, vanilla extract and bananas.

Stir flour mixture into banana mixture; batter will be slightly lumpy.

Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Cook until pancakes are golden brown on both sides; serve hot.

Tip for smashing banana, place them on a ziplock back and sqush them, cut a hole in the corner of the bag and squeeze out.
