Banana Pancake

Woke up from an afternoon nap and wanted to eat something sweet and most importantly easy and quick to prepare. I came across this banana pancake recipe last night when I was going through some old recipe books that have been sitting on my bookshelf for quite some time. This was from a recipe book published by Nutrition Society of Malaysia in 1999. Not sure where this recipe book came from.

My daughter said she is not keen in eating banana but nevertheless, would like to help me in preparing it. As usual, sifting the flour is her favorite part and she ended with arranging the sliced banana on the pancake. Turnout both hubby and son especially, love it. I like it too but prefer the pancake to be fluffier. For my daughter, she just took a bite but it was a good short activity and time spent with my daughter.

Ingredients:
125g wheat flour
250g fresh milk
3 tbsp sugar
3-4 pcs banana (sliced)

Method:
1. Combine the wheat flour, milk and sugar to become a smooth batter. Strain to remove lumps.
2. Slice banana and mix into batter.
3. Lightly grease and heat a non-stick pan. Pour enough batter into the pan to form a thin layer.
4. Cook over low heat until lightly brown, turn and brown the other side.
5. Remove and place pancake on a dish. Repeat with remaining batter.
6. Arrange few slices of banana on the pancake. Serve hot.

Love honey, so poured some on the pancake before serving. The recipe mentioned that an egg can be added to increase the aroma and mouth feel but skipped that.

Simple Pizza Bread

Did simple pizza bread for the family for breakfast and made each one uniquely for them. The ingredients used were tomato sauce, ham (shredded), capsicum (red pepper), shredded cheddar cheese and bread.
Blue - Hubby's pizza was with sliced ham (instead of shredded) and cheese. Capsicum is a no-no for him. Later, hubby requested for another one without the tomato sauce. He just love it simple.
Pink - Daughter's favourite color. For her, tomato sauce is a must and added the ham and cheese. Just like her father, capsicum is a no-no too.
Green - My son eats everything but only place a few slices of capsicum for him. There you see his little hand ......
Yellow - For myself, everything and lots of capsicum.

Simple breakfast but eveyone enjoyed it.
