Description

Ingredients

• 1 cups heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons confectioners sugar, sifted
• 1 medium ripe bananas, chopped
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
• ¾ cup packed brown sugar
• 3 eggs
• ¾ cup molasses
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2¼ teaspoons baking powder
• 1½ teaspoons ground ginger
• 1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon ground allspice
• 2 cups milk
• Maple syrup

Directions

• In a large mixing bowl, beat cream at medium to medium high speed using an electric mixer until cream begins to thicken.
• Turn mixer off and add confectioners’ sugar. Mix on low until sugar is incorporated, the increase speed to medium and continue to mix until soft peaks form.
• Turn mixer off. Gently fold in chopped bananas. Cover whipped cream and chill until ready to serve.
• In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, salt and allspice. Set aside.
• In another large mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until mixture is light and fluffy.
• Add eggs, one at a time, making sure that each egg is well-incorporated within the batter after each addition. Mix in molasses.
• With the mixer on medium-low, add about ⅓ of the flour mixture. Once it is well incorporated, mix in half of the milk. Repeat steps until flour and milk are thoroughly combined within the batter.
• Pour batter by ¼ cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle. Turn pancakes when bubbles begin to form on top, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip and continue to cook until the other side is brown, about two minutes.
• Stack pancakes on a plate. Serve with a dollop of banana whipped cream and a drizzle of maple syrup.
