Interesting fact, I couldn’t find ‘ulu flour to make these pancakes. So I opted to using the ’ulu fruit. To get a smooth batter, I blended the liquid ingredients with the bananas and ’ulu together. As the pancakes cooked, they had this really nice, fluffy look that reminded me of Japanese soufflé pancakes (just not as thick and light in color). The pancake turned out a bit chewy (probably due to the blended ’ulu) but was still super yummy and resembled the flavor of buttermilk pancakes. If you don’t have ’ulu flour to work with, I encourage using the actual fruit as an alternative.
