Banana bread and pancakes are one of our favourite breakfast hybrids (no one will be able to resist a stack of their own).

  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 4 overripe bananas

Instructions

  • WHISK flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and cinnamon in a large bowl.
  • MASH bananas in a medium bowl with a fork. It should measure 1 1/2 cups. Whisk in eggs, sour cream, butter, brown sugar and vanilla. Fold into flour mixture until just combined. Stir in chocolate and walnuts.
