Peel your banana and mash it until its very wet and no chunks remain. Set aside.
1 Ripe Banana
Combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together until well combined.
1 ½ Cup Gluten Free 1-to-1 Flour Blend, ½ teaspoon Cinnamon, 2 teaspoon Baking Powder, ¼ teaspoon Baking Soda, ¼ teaspoon Salt
In a small bowl, whisk the egg until it's frothy like soap bubbles.
1 Egg
Add the egg, oil, vanilla, maple syrup, 1 ¼ C of milk and mashed banana to the flour mixture. Mix together with a whisk or spatula until the dry ingredients are incorporated. It's ok if it has some small lumps.
2 Tablespoon Maple Syrup, 1 teaspoon Vanilla, 3 Tablespoon Oil, 1 ¼ Cup Non Dairy Milk
The batter should be loose enough to spread easily on a pancake griddle. You may need to add up to an additional ¼ cup of milk to reach the desired consistency. You can cook a test pancake first and then add a little more milk if needed if you're unsure.
Fold the walnuts in with a spatula.
¾ Cup Walnuts
Let the batter sit while you preheat your pan or pancake griddle. If using a pan, heat over medium heat. If using a griddle, heat to 350 degrees.
Lightly spray your cooking surface with non stick spray. Then lightly wipe the surface with a paper towel.
Portion out ¼ cup full of batter for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the edges appear dry and there are visible bubbles rising to the surface in the center of the pancake. Flip and cook the second side for about 2 minutes until it's golden brown.
Place cooked pancakes on a paper towel lined plate. Serve warm.

Notes
Not Dairy Free: Use regular milk in place of non-dairy milk in the same measure.Make it vegan / egg free: Substitute the single egg in these pancakes for a flax egg. Flax egg is made by combining 1 Tablespoon ground flax meal with 3 Tablespoons water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, then mix it in as you would the egg. Since you're not getting the air bubbles from whisking the egg, the pancakes will be a little denser than usual.No Walnuts / No Nuts: If you don't like walnuts, feel free to use the nut of your choice. We frequently substitute the same amount of chopped pecans. If you want to omit nuts altogether, chocolate chips, gluten free granola, and blueberries all make great substitutions.Make it with pancake mix: Pancake mix will replace the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in this recipe. Use 1 ½ cup of your favorite pancake mix. Whisk in the cinnamon. Then follow the remaining directions for the wet ingredients. Storage: Wrap each pancake in a paper towel and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will last 4-5 days.Reheating: When you’re ready to eat, remove from the refrigerator leaving the paper towel on the pancake microwave for 30-60 seconds until warmed.
