Almond Granola and Banana Pancake

Ingredients:

* 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour(I used Bob's Red Mill Organic Whole Wheat Pastry Flour)

* 1 tsp brown sugar

* 1/2 tsp baking powder

* 1/4 tsp baking soda

* tiny pinch of salt

* 1 egg white

* 1/2 cup buttermilk, well-shaken

* 1/2 tsp pure almond extract(Optional)

* 2 Tbsp almond granola (I used Bob's Red Mill Honey Almond Granola)

* 1 medium-sized banana, sliced

* Butter or canola oil cooking spray (I used butter as it smells better)

* Golden maple syrup(I used Lyle Golden Syrup Maple Flavour)

Directions:

1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda. Sift them.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg white, buttermilk, and almond extract(if you added).
3. Stir dry ingredients into the wet just until moistened. Fold in granola and banana slices. Set aside to rest.
4. Heat a large nonstick pan over medium/medium-low heat. Coat with butter.
5. When hot, spoon the batter onto the pan, make it round as possible
6. When bubbles appear on the surface of the batter, (about 2-3 minutes), the pancakes are ready to be flipped.
7. Flip pancakes and let cook for another minute or so, or until golden brown.
8. Serve with maple syrup.
