Chocolate Pancakes with Caramelized Banana (Panqueca doce de chocolate com banana caramelizada)

Ingredients

4 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 cup milk
6 tablespoons cocoa powder
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon sugar
Vegetable oil for greasing the pan
4 tablespoons milk
1 large egg
4 tablespoons water
1 cup cake flour
6 bananas

Where to find ingredients

You can find all fresh ingredients such as bananas, eggs, and milk at local supermarkets or neighbourhood markets across Botswana. Look for quality cocoa powder and cake flour in the baking aisle. If needed, standard salted butter is a great substitute for margarine, which is also widely available.

Preparation method

  1. Blend the flour, milk, egg, sugar, and cocoa powder in a blender until the batter is smooth and well-combined.
  2. Heat a non-stick frying pan lightly greased with a little oil over medium heat.
  3. Pour a small ladle of batter into the pan, swirling to coat the base, then cook until golden before flipping to brown the other side.
  4. Remove the pancakes from the pan and keep them aside on a warm plate.
  5. Place the sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until it begins to form a light syrup.
  6. Add the roughly chopped bananas to the syrup, reduce the heat, and cook gently until they are nicely caramelized.
  7. In a separate saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, milk, and cocoa powder to prepare the chocolate topping.
  8. Cook the chocolate sauce over low heat for approximately 8 minutes until it thickens to a glossy consistency.
  9. Spoon the caramelized bananas over each pancake, fold them neatly, and arrange on a serving platter.
  10. Drizzle the warm pancakes with the prepared chocolate sauce and serve immediately on individual plates.

Observations

This sweet pancake recipe is a firm family favorite. The chocolate batter is light and fluffy, pairing beautifully with the comforting sweetness of perfectly caramelized bananas. For the best results, ensure the batter is completely smooth when blending and use a quality non-stick frying pan. Drizzling with an extra chocolate sauce adds that chef-like touch everyone loves.
