Fluffy skillet pancakes with mashed banana, made in a batch sized for one person.

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ tablespoon sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 large egg
¾ cup milk
1 tablespoon melted butter plus 1 teaspoon softened butter for the pan
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 medium ripe banana mashed
Optional serving: maple syrup, banana slices, pecans

Directions

Whisk the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in one bowl.
In another bowl, mix the egg, milk, 1 tablespoon melted butter, vanilla, and mashed banana.
Stir the wet mixture into the dry mixture, leaving a few small lumps.
Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium heat and melt the 1 teaspoon butter in it.
Pour about ¾ cup batter into the skillet for each pancake. Cook for about 3 minutes, until bubbles form and the edges look set. Flip and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat with the rest of the batter.
