7 Perfect Pancake Recipes ...

These are my number one favorite of all these pancake recipes. Well, perhaps I do like the chocolaty ones better, but these are actually semi-healthy so I make these more often than all of the others. Trust me, they are delicious!

Ingredients:
Prepared Pancake Mix
1 Tbs Butter
½ Cup Chopped Walnuts
¼ Cup Brown Sugar
1 Banana

Directions:
Smash the banana and stir it into the pancake batter using a whisk.

In a small sauté pan, use the butter and brown sugar to caramelize the walnuts.

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat until a splash of water sizzles.

Use a ladle to scoop the batter into the pan.

Sprinkle the top with the caramelized walnuts.

When the sides of the pancake have firmed up, flip it over and cook on the other side for 1-2 minutes.
