Make the Spooky Banana Pancakes:

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Add in the beaten eggs and melted butter, mixing until smooth.
  • Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes.
  • Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.

  • Cook until golden brown on both sides.

Make the Halloween Strawberry Sauce:

  • Combine fresh strawberries, sugar, and water in a blender.
  • Blend until smooth.
  • Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds (optional).
  • Simmer the sauce in a saucepan over medium heat until thickened, stirring frequently.
  • Remove from heat and let cool.

Assemble and Serve:

  • Serve immediately or chill for later. Garnish with whipped cream, if desired.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Spooky Success:

  • For extra spooky flair, use cookie cutters to create Halloween shapes from the pancakes before cooking.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon to the pancake batter for a warm, autumnal flavor.
  • To make the strawberry sauce even richer, add a splash of orange liqueur (like Grand Marnier or Cointreau).
  • Get creative with your presentation! Use edible Halloween sprinkles or candies to decorate the pancakes and sauce.
