Jack Johnson's Banana Pancakes

When Travis and I were first married, we began a tradition of making a big breakfast on Saturday mornings. Often, while we whipped up our breakfast feast, we would listen to Jack Johnson's Banana Pancakes song, and chuckle about how fitting it was. Our "Big breakfast Saturdays" are still a favorite tradition in our family, as are these amazing banana pancakes. They are oh-so light and fluffy on the inside, and perfectly sweet! I hope they'll become a family favorite for you too!

Ingredients:
2 cups wheat flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp. honey
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups milk
2 tbsp. applesauce
2 ripe bananas, mashed

Directions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
2. Add the honey, eggs, milk, applesauce, and banana and stir until just combined.
3. Heat a griddle to 325 F. Ladle about a 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the griddle, and cook until pancakes are golden brown on both sides,
4. Serve as is, or top with a drizzle of maple syrup or agave nectar.
