Bread Pancakes Recipes

BANANA BREAD PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a small bowl with a whisk. Reserve until needed.
• Place banana in a mixing bowl and mash into a smooth paste with a potato masher. Add egg and sugar and whisk thoroughly until sugar is dissolved and mixture is smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add milk, vanilla extract, 1/4 cup melted butter, walnuts, and flour mixture. Whisk until just combined.
• Let batter rest for 10 minutes.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large, nonstick pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, transfer in about 1/3 cup of the batter per pancake. Reduce heat to medium and cook until edges start to look dry and small air bubbles pop up through the surface, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes more. Serve immediately.

ZUCCHINI BREAD PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet.
• Spread the walnuts in a single layer on another rimmed baking sheet. Bake, shaking halfway through, until toasted and fragrant, about 35 minutes. Let cool, then chop. Do not turn off the oven.
• Meanwhile, line a medium bowl with a kitchen towel. Grate the zucchini in a food processor using the grater attachment to yield 2 cups (see Cook's Note). Transfer the grated zucchini to the towel-lined bowl and gather the sides to make a bundle. Squeeze out as much liquid from the zucchini as possible. Discard the liquid and set the zucchini aside.
• Whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and kosher salt in another medium bowl.
• Whisk together the buttermilk, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla and egg in a large bowl. Stir in the grated zucchini. Fold in the flour mixture until just combined. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly grease with vegetable oil. Ladle 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet to make a pancake (the batter is fairly thick, so you may need to spread it a bit). Make 1 or 2 more pancakes, taking care to space them apart evenly. Cook until the edges begin to brown and bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to prepared rack and place in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
• Serve the pancakes warm with salted butter, the toasted chopped walnuts and maple syrup.

BREAD-CRUMB PANCAKES

Steps:

• Heat milk and pour over crumbs, and let stand for 15 minutes.
• Sift flour, baking powder and salt, and add to crumb mixture, along with egg, syrup (or honey) and melted butter.
• Beat until well blended and free lumps, and drop by tablespoons onto a well-greased griddle, allowing one side to brown before turning.
• Re-grease griddle before every batch.
• Serve hot.
