You can use any pancake batter or make your own batter. Make pancakes as silver dollar (great for kids cause their small pancakes). Slice bananas, size to slice is really up to you, but I prefer medium cause ur able to pick up bananas and pancakes w/ your fork. Pour syrup in pot add cinnamon, depends on your taste on the amount of syrup and cinnamon you want to use. btw any kind of syrup you prefer using is good. Heat syrup and cinnamon til you see alil bubble form, DO NOT! let syrup heat to long cause it may stiff or become like caramel. Hope u enjoy! Myself and family did. The ingredients I have at the top page do not use, this recipe depends on the amount of people your cooking for and how much you and you company can eat.
