IHOP Banana Pancakes Recipe

There's a reason IHOP's banana pancakes stay at the top of our family's breakfast menu! They are just TOO good!
One thing that makes these pancakes so tantalizing is the addition of airy banana cream, perfect for layering with fresh banana slices.
The tip for achieving that authentic flavor is using ripe bananas, which add natural sweetness and texture.
Drizzling with a rich caramel sauce and a dollop of whipped cream takes these pancakes to another dimension.
