Where to find ingredients
You can find all necessary ingredients at local markets or supermarkets such as Shoprite or Pick n Pay. Look for all-purpose flour in the baking aisle and fresh bananas in the produce section. Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor.
Preparation method
- Combine the flour, milk, egg, sugar, and cocoa powder in a blender and process until the batter is smooth and homogeneous.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan greased with a small amount of oil over medium heat.
- Pour a shallow ladle of batter into the pan, swirl to coat evenly, wait until golden, then flip to cook the other side.
- Remove the pancakes from the pan and set aside on a plate.
- Place the sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat until it begins to form a syrup.
- Add the bananas cut into large chunks to the syrup, lower the heat, and allow them to caramelize gently.
- In a separate saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, milk, and cocoa powder to prepare the chocolate topping.
- Cook the chocolate sauce over low heat for approximately 8 minutes until it thickens.
- Distribute the caramelized bananas over each pancake, fold them, and arrange them on a serving platter.
- Drizzle the pancakes with the warm chocolate sauce or serve individually on plates.
