- I usually use cow's milk but you could use any kind, and for a dairy free diet you can replace milk by water.
- all purpose flour is the best for this pancakes but if you use a gluten free flour feel good to use oatmeal flour or almond flour which is more healthy.

notes to get the perfect banana pancakes:
- Heat the nonstick pan before using, test it with some drops of water, if it sizzle quickly you are fine.
- you have to make sure to use overripe banana because we don't add any sugar so all the sweetness of the pancakes is coming from the banana. usually overripe banana are so soft when you touch it also it has some black spots on it.
- If you don't have overripe banana, you can try this hack, microwave your banana for about 15 seconds. And cool it down before adding it to egg to avoid getting scrambled egg.
- one of the most important notes is to avoid over mixing the batter because if you over mix it you will work the gluten that is in the flour and you will have elastic pancakes.

This recipe is going with too much additions.
So if you like chocolate, you can add some chocolate chips, it will make it more delicious.
Also adding blueberries is one of the best ideas, they becomes melted and sweet inside the pancake.
For crunch lovers please feel free to add any type of nuts, such as chopped almonds and peanuts or pecans.
And about milk, we understand that not all of people are drinking cow's milk, so it is possible to replace it with cashew milk or oats milk, and coconut milk is also good.
