Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 medium bananas, chopped
  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1-1/2 cups packed brown sugar
  • 6 eggs
  • 1-1/2 cups molasses
  • 6 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2-1/4 teaspoons salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 4 cups 2% milk

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add confectioners' sugar; beat until soft peaks form. Fold in bananas. Cover and chill until serving.
In a very large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in molasses. Combine the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, salt and allspice; add to the creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating well after each addition.
Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle; turn when bubbles form on top. Cook until the second side is golden brown. Serve with banana cream. Yield: 42 pancakes (4-2/3 cups topping).
