- Sieve the flour and salt, and add the eggs and milk. Whisk until there are no lumps in the mixture.
- In a 18cm (7 in) pan, heat the oil on a high temperature, then turn down slightly. Spoon a small ladle of mixture into the pan and tip the pan so the mixture spreads evenly over the base
- Cook on a medium heat for about a minute - until the pancake is starting to brown underneath (you can check this with a palette knife). Flip the pancake in the pan and continue to cook until it is golden brown.
- Make all of the pancakes and stack. You can put them in the oven on a very low heat to keep them warm.
- Melt butter in a large frying pan. Gradually add the sugar and stir over a low heat until melted.
- Add the bananas and fry gently until golden and syrupy. Stir in the lemon juice.
- Fold the pancakes into four, and cover with the mixture. Serve hot with whipped cream if desired.
