Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 ¼ cups milk
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  4. Gently fold in the mashed bananas.
  5. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  6. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately ¼ cup for each pancake.
  7. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of black pepper to the spice mix.
  • If you don’t have all the chai spices, use a pre-made chai spice blend.
  • Ensure your bananas are very ripe for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Serve with maple syrup, whipped cream, or extra banana slices.
