Banana Nut Pancakes Recipe

Banana Nut Pancakes

I love banana anything and pancakes are no exception. My mother use to make pancakes for us almost every Saturday growing up as a child.  I try to do the same thing with my son. Yeah I'm HUGE on family traditions. My toddler's palette however is a little more advanced than mine was as child, (I take full, proud responsibility for that!!) so I have to mix it up a bit for him. The plain ol pancakes with maple syrup just won't cut it every weekend for him.

My husband likes a lot of fluff on his pancakes so this banana nut pancake recipe with homemade banana brown sugar syrup is what I usually make for him on special days like his birthday or whenever I want something.

This pancake recipe is very basic and really any pancake recipe will do as long as it's not a super moist pancake recipe. I love the way all the flavors just tie together and although these banana nut pancakes looks very sweet with it's powdered sugar, cool whip & syrup, the sweetness somehow balances out beautifully.

I hope that you enjoy these beautiful banana nut pancakes just as much as we do in this house!
