Sheet Pan Bananas Foster Pancakes
By Sue Lau | Palatable Pastime
My recipe of the day is for sheet pan Bananas Foster pancakes.
This comes from a recipe I spotted on the Food Network that had 4 kinds of baked pancake on a sheet pan. I took the concept and ran with it, making it all bananas, and adjusting the flavors and including my own rum praline syrup.
Tested and Sorted Out
But as sometimes happens, their recipe was off with weird pan sizes and the bake time was off by 50%. This is why pinterest fails happen. Luckily I have all that sorted out for you here.
And my syrup I know works because I use it sometimes on my sweet potatoes, except in this case it is spiked with rum. If you don’t care for rum you can flavor with something else.
How Do These Taste?
The pancakes turn out swimmingly- like a beautiful cross between coffee cake and Dutch baby pancakes. The syrup is a definite wowser with it. You could also serve this with a little whipped cream, and if you like this as dessert, top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and put the syrup over that.
I mean, yeah. That kind of thing is always the right thing to do.
The Golden Squares
I also have my Jambalaya pot pie going up today- another Mardis Gras type item. I found it a bit funny that they both are shaped like golden squares. Perhaps it means something? Nope.
In any case, enjoy.
National Pancake Day
It’s Time for Pancake Day! Mardis Gras is upon us and that means everything pancakes is fair game as well. What better way to celebrate the flavor of a New Orleans Carnival and a pancake by combining the flavors of a fabulous NOLA dessert into an easy to make breakfast treat?
