In a small bowl, mash a ripe banana with a fork until nicely mashed.
Whisk in egg, buttermilk, oil, and sugar.
Whisk in flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until smooth.
It’s important to preheat the pan or the griddle first, before cooking the pancakes. Preheat it over medium heat and then lower it a little bit before adding pancake batter.
Grease the pan or the griddle a little bit.
Use 1/3 cup measuring cup to make thee pancakes. (Or, you can make any size pancakes if you wish, even silver dollar pancakes will be great.)
Add the batter to the heated pan and let it cook without touching it.
Wait for the bubbles to appear all over the top, that is your indication that pancakes are ready to flip. Use a spatula to slide all the way under the pancake, lift it off, and use your wrist to quickly flip. (It will take about 4-6 minutes for each pancake to cook. Time will slightly vary for different sized pancakes and how hot your pan it. Silver dollar pancakes cook even faster.)
