These banana macadamia nut pancakes are yummy plain or with conventional pancake dressings but when drizzled with coconut syrup they will leave you dreaming of the land of aloha. Just one bite will transport you to the Hawaiian islands. The addition of mashed banana to the buttermilk pancakes makes them exceptionally light and fluffy. You can either add chopped macadamia nuts to the pancake batter or for a lighter version, simply sprinkle some on top as a garnish.
- 1 can of coconut milk
- ½ cup sugar
- Dash of vanilla extract
- 1 cup flour
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder

- ¼ cup chopped macadamia nuts
- Mix the ingredients in a small saucepan.
- Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring it constantly, until it comes to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes until it thickens into a syrup, being careful not to let it cook at a full boil or the consistency of your syrup will change, becoming grainy and gummy.
- Use it immediately or let it cool and then store it in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
- Mix the dry ingredients.
- Stir in the wet ingredients.
- Heat a griddle to medium heat and cook the pancakes until they are golden brown on each side.
