I'm looking forward to making this next time I have overripe bananas on hand. Incidentally, here's a tip for ripe banana mashing: forget the fork--who needs another implement to wash? Just gently squeeze the banana inside its skin for a few moments, until it feels nice and soft. Then peel back the top and just press out the banana pulp directly into your mixing bowl. This works like a charm and the kids are always happy to help. (P.S. Don't try this if your helpers are prone to overenthusiastic squishing, or you'll be cleaning banana mash off the wall.) Thanks for the recipe! This recipe sounds amazing! I’m looking forward to making this next time I have overripe bananas on hand.

The pumpkin also sounds good. That's a staple around our house. - Lea at Quick Serve Kids I’m copying this one down right now–sounds like the perfect way to use that last banana that’s just a bit too ripe to peel-n-eat.

They are pretty dense, so I imagine the best way to float some berries into the pancakes would be to actually stir them into the pancake batter. Pumpkin puree would be an excellent substitution- I may have to try that myself! I’m so glad you made them Maureen!

I tried to add in some frozen blueberries just after I poured the batter on the griddle - didn't work out super great but was a nice addition. I also added some cinnamon (good for you from what I understand and also my family likes the taste of it). Could one substitute canned pumpkin for the banana on these? Thanks for sharing...
