Preparation
Step 1
Whisk wet ingredients together in a medium bowl.
Step 2
Mix dry ingredients together in a small bowl. (* see notes if fermenting overnight)
Step 3
Gradually add flour mixture to wet mixture, whisking until just combined. If the batter feels thick (wholegrain flours are “thirstier” than white flour), add a little more milk to thin to the desired consistency. (It should pour slowly out of the bowl. ) Let sit 15 minutes.
Step 4
Heat a dry skillet over medium-low heat until very very hot. Add oil or a combo of oil and butter to the skillet and swirl. Ladle in a 1/2 cup batter (to make a 6-inch pancake). Flip when golden and small bubbles appear at the surface. Cook until middle puffs in the center, lowering heat if necessary.
Step 5
Keep in a warm oven or cover with foil. Repeat with the remaining 5 pancakes.
Step 6
Add butter to the same skillet. Add pecans and a pinch of salt. Saute for 3-4 minutes over medium heat until toasted. Move to one side. Add the bananas. Sear each side of the banana 2-3 minutes, or until golden.
Step 7
Once the bananas are golden, pour the maple syrup over the bananas and pecans, give a stir, turn the heat off and remove the pan from the burner.
Step 8
Serve the pancakes and top with the Maple Glazed Bananas and Pecans.
