  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon CBD-infused oil (make sure it’s food-grade and free of THC)
  • Optional: Sliced bananas, chopped nuts, or chocolate chips for topping

Equipment:

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Electric mixer or stand mixer (optional)
  • Non-stick frying pan or griddle
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Preparing the CBD-infused Banana Pancakes:

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the mashed banana, milk, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and CBD-infused oil.
  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as it can result in dense pancakes.
  • If desired, you can use an electric mixer or stand mixer on low speed for a smoother batter. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Cooking the Pancakes:

  • Preheat a non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat.
  • Lightly grease the pan with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
  • Use a measuring cup or ladle to pour approximately ¼ cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake.
  • Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface.
  • Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
  • Remove the cooked pancakes from the pan and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
  • Stack the pancakes on a serving plate, layering them with optional toppings such as sliced bananas, chopped nuts, or chocolate chips.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Serve the CBD-infused banana pancakes warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, honey, or your favorite pancake syrup.
  • Top them with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for added sweetness.
  • Consider adding a pat of butter or a side of crispy bacon for a savory twist.
  • Pair the pancakes with fresh berries, such as strawberries or blueberries, for a burst of fruity flavor.
  • Serve them with a side of scrambled eggs or bacon for a complete breakfast experience.

Storage:

  • If you have leftover pancakes, let them cool completely.
  • Place the pancakes in an airtight container or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap.
  • Refrigerate the pancakes

for up to 2-3 days.

  • To reheat the pancakes, you have a few options. You can warm them in the microwave for a quick fix, or you can place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes until they are heated through.
  • If you want to freeze the pancakes for longer storage, stack them with parchment paper or wax paper in between each pancake to prevent sticking. Place the stack in a freezer bag or an airtight container and freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat, you can thaw them in the refrigerator overnight and then reheat using the microwave or oven.
