1 cup milk (or non-dairy alternative)

2 tbsp melted butter or oil

Instructions
1️⃣ Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2️⃣ Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk mashed banana, milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3️⃣ Combine: Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Don’t overmix—lumps are fine.
4️⃣ Preheat skillet: Heat a lightly greased skillet or griddle over medium heat.
