These are not big, thick, fluffy pancakes.  The mashed banana makes them a softer pancake than the usual sort.  I rather liked them that way for a change.  Thinner, softer pancakes made eating a stack of them a little more manageable, and I didn’t feel as disgustedly stuffed.  If you’d like them to be a fluffier pancake, I’d add a small amount of flour (maybe 1/4 cup) to the batter.

The pecans are easily an optional choice.  I preferred mine with lightly toasted pecans on top, and  my husband (infamously known for not being a lover of nuts) ate his pancakes without.  Plenty of warm maple syrup drizzled on top was the right choice for these.  Happy weekend 🙂
