- I have a brown banana and leftover corn in my fridge!
- That looks yummy!
- I’m out of corn meal 🙁
Rather than give up and allow my banana and corn to go bad, I decided to venture off on my own. Why not doctor up my favorite Trader Joe’s pancake mix? So here’s what Henry and I did. . .
ABC (Apple Banana Corn) Pancakes
1/2 cup of cooked corn kernels
1 mashed banana1 small finely diced apple1 cup TJ’s multi-grain pancake mix1 cup milk1/2 teaspoon cinnamon1/2 teaspoon nutmeg1 tablespoon brown sugarWe mixed up all the ingredients and fried the batter on a hot pan. Wow. They were awesome. Really awesome. We topped them with some pumpkin butter that we bought from the farmer’s market and it was pure yumminess! The corn made them hearty and crunchy. The banana made them smooth and creamy. The nutmeg gave them that fall taste that I love. And Henry went to town — helping and eating.
Give it a try and don’t be afraid to add your own leftovers for your own unique taste.
