Chocolate Pancakes with Bananas Yield: 6 Servings
1 T butter, melted 1 lg egg 1/2 c half-and-half 1/4 c sugar 3 T unsweetened cocoa powder dash salt 1/2 c flour 3 bananas, diced (about 3 cups) 2 ts lime juice 3/4 c hot fudge sauce 1/2 c heavy cream, whipped 1/4 c sliced almonds, toasted
In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, egg, half-and-half, 3 tablespoons sugar, cocoa, salt, and flour until smooth.
Place a pancake griddle over medium-low heat, brush with oil and when hot, drop 1 generous tablespoon batter onto griddle in 4 separate places, spacing evenly. Cook only 30 seconds. With a spatula, flip pancakes over and cook 20 to 30 seconds longer. Wrap pancakes in foil to keep warm. Repeat until all batter is cooked.
In a small bowl, mix diced bananas with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and lime juice. To serve, divide bananas among 6 individual dessert plates. Arrange 3 warm pancakes, overlapping, on top of bananas on each plate. Top with hot fudge sauce and whipped cream, dividing evenly. Garnish with toasted almonds. Serve immediately.
Note: If pancakes are prepared in advance, wrap slightly overlapping in foil and refrigerate. Just before serving, heat in a preheated 200 degree F. oven 15 to 20 minutes, or until warm.
