Ingredients: 1 egg; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 cup white sugar; 1 tablespoon white sugar; 1 teaspoon salt; 2 tablespoons butter, melted; 7 tablespoons butter; 1 teaspoon coconut extract; 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed; 1 very ripe banana, mashed; 1.5 cups all-purpose flour; 0.5 teaspoon baking soda; 2.75 teaspoons baking powder; 1.25 cups milk; 0.75 cup buttermilk

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Whisk flour, 1 tablespoon white sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Mix milk, egg, and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl. Stir milk mixture into flour mixture until incorporated.

Step 2

Beat banana in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; mix creamed banana into batter. Stir melted butter into batter. Refrigerate batter for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls into the hot oil, and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip, and cook until browned on the other side, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

Step 4

Combine 1 cup white sugar, buttermilk, and butter in a saucepan over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil for 1 minute; reduce heat and mix coconut extract and baking soda into the syrup. Simmer until baking soda is dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes.
