Step 1

In a small bowl, vigorously mash an overripe banana with a fork. Add the flour and egg; stir well with a whisk.

Step 2

Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Pour one-third of the batter onto the skillet, forming a perfect circle. Cook for a few minutes, or until bubbles pop through the top and the edges brown. Flip the pancakes with a spatula or thrust the pan like a pro; and cook for 1 or 2 more minutes.

Step 3

Transfer to a plate and top with whatever your heart desires, whether that be walnuts, blueberries, peanut butter, bacon, or a ton of maple syrup.
