Banana pancakes

pinch of cardamom powder
1 egg optional
1/2 cup or 2 ripe bananas
1/2 cup milk or more to make the batter
treacle or maple syrup to serve

Mix the flour and cardamom powder, leave it aside.
Using a blender blend the bananas, egg if using and milk till it is smooth. Add the flour mixture and blend to make a smooth pancake batter without lumps.
Heat a griddle. Depending on the pan or griddle coat with oil before putting the batter. When the griddle is hot put 2 tbsp batter and smoothen it like crepe, but not too thin. Let it cook until it is easy to turn. Turn and cook the other side.
Serve hot with treacle or maple syrup.
