# Caramelized Banana Pancake Recipe - Made In

Kind of breakfast, mostly dessert, and entirely delicious, this recipe for a caramelized banana pancake is even better than Sunday morning banana pancakes.

This part-breakfast, mostly-dessert recipe is a long-standing family favorite of Dustin Valette, Chef-Owner of [The Matheson](https://www.thematheson.com/) and [Valette](https://www.valettehealdsburg.com/) in Healdsburg, CA. Perfect for when you need a decadent breakfast-adjacent recipe for a special occasion, holiday, birthday, or just to brighten up a morning, this isn’t your standard banana pancake recipe—it’s even better.

  
This hearty pancake is more like an upside down cake than the breakfast staple. Batter is poured into a [Non Stick Frying Pan](/products/non-stick-frying-pan/12-inch-graphite) on top of a foolproof caramel, baked, then inverted on a large plate to serve. Pro tip: Select your desired Serving Plate or platter before you start cooking. Since our Non Stick Frying Pan is oven-safe up to 500F, prep and cleanup is a cinch—if you needed another reason to make this.
