Futurama Friday Flapjacks (Banana Nutella! No eggs)

Welcome to the last edition of Futurama Friday Flapjacks! At least until next summer, anyway. Yes, today was the season finale of Futurama, and it was excellent! They split the episode up into 3 little mini-episodes, re-imagining the cartoon in other forms of animation. The first one was 1930's style, the second video game style, and the third was a spoof of anime shows. They were each cute, creative, funny, and sweet. It will definitely go down as one of my favourites! And of course, a special episode deserves a special pancake!

We had a jar of (off brand!) nutella, and I knew I wanted to incorporate it into a batch of pancakes. Banana off-set the flavour perfectly, and these were so delicious. When they were cooking, the smell was absolutely divine! Recipe!

1 cup flour
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. Baking powder
2 tsp. oil
1/3 cup nutella (or equivilent)
1 tsp. vanilla
3/4 cup milk
1 banana, mashed



Mix together your dry ingredients well. Stir in your oil well. Carefully Stir in your nutella, vanilla, and water until desired consistency. Fold in your banana (we like big chunks!) Careful not to over stir your pancakes. Bubbles are good. Lumps are good. They cook out easily. Spoon onto a hot greased skillet, and enjoy! These were so good. For a few, we spooned on a tiny bit of extra nutella and let it melt on the hot pancake. SO good.

I'm going to miss having Friday Flapjacks with Dave- it's such a fun little tradition, and it's so nice to just let everything go over good food, and a silly show. Like I said last week, we'll probably continue the tradition with a different show for a while, but still! Dave and I have our year and a half anniversary on Monday, and I have some steaks in the freezer I'm going to put to good use. :)  And since the 11th is Friday I hope everyone will do something to remember and enjoy the freedom we have all paid so dearly for. Enjoy your weekend!
