Pancake, referred to as "lempeng" in Malay, is a cake-like dish prepared by cooking batter as the primary component on a flat, heated surface such as a griddle, which is coated with fats like oil or butter.
Within the Malay community, banana pancake holds a place as a traditional treat. It distinguishes itself from bread or flatbread since the latter involves creating a flour-based dough. However, the batter for banana pancakes is crafted from mashed bananas blended with wheat flour and is commonly cooked on a level griddle.
Banana pancakes can be savored while still hot in the morning or afternoon. The ingredients are basic, and the cooking process is relatively uncomplicated. The ideal choice for crafting these pancakes is the "pisang berangan" variety of bananas, celebrated for its sweet and tender flavor. Nonetheless, in the absence of these, any kind of banana can be utilized.
Components for banana pancakes include: Wheat flour, vegetable oil, margarine, bananas, salt, water
