Ingredients
- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter, cooking oil, or melted coconut oil
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar or coconut sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- ¾ cup Nutella, melted
- Optional Nutella Fudge Sauce: ¼ cup Nutella, 1–2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mash the banana until smooth. Whisk in the egg, melted butter (or oil), vanilla, and milk.
- Add self-rising flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix until just combined—do not overmix.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
- Pour 2 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet for each pancake base.
- Spoon 1 teaspoon of melted Nutella into the center of the batter, then cover with 1–2 more tablespoons of batter, sealing in a zig-zag motion.
- Cook until bubbles form and edges look set. Flip and cook until golden brown.
- Repeat with remaining batter and Nutella.
- Optional Nutella Fudge Sauce: Microwave Nutella for 30 seconds, stir in milk, and whisk until smooth and pourable.
- Serve warm with sliced bananas and optional Nutella sauce.
Notes
- Seal Nutella well to prevent leaks.
- Melt Nutella for easier spooning and spreading.
- Use plant-based milk and flax egg for a vegan version.
- Add mini chocolate chips or chopped hazelnuts for texture.
- Use a nonstick skillet or griddle for best results.
