For evening time banana pancake is a good choice from health perspective. These are extremely quick to make and taste sensational, especially when using over-ripe bananas. I sometimes serve them up with some maple bacon to get that salty-sweet flavour that I love. Plain banana pancakes is like a blank canvas. When it comes to toppings, you can keep it simple or get as creative as you want. You can make it for your breakfast and also evening time. Bananas are rich in vitamins, minerals and nutrients. The high content of fibre ensures your digestion doesn't trouble you. Martabak Singapore comes with caramelized banana flavour.
