Peel the overripe banana and place it in a bowl.

Mash the banana with a fork until it is mushy.

Add 1 tablespoon of sugar to the mashed banana.

Add 1 cup of all-purpose flour to the bowl.

Add a pinch of salt, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla to the mixture.

Mix the ingredients together until combined.

Add about 3 tablespoons of water to the batter and mix until the consistency is slightly firm but falls off the spoon.

Prepare the fish by ensuring it is dry and seasoned ahead of time.

Coat the fish in flour directly in the same bowl used for the pancake batter.

Heat the frying pan over medium-low heat for the pancakes.

Test the heat with a thin piece of snapper to see if it sizzles.

Fry the fish for about 1 minute on each side until cooked through.

Add the pancake batter to the pan, ensuring not to overcrowd it.

Cook the pancakes until they have a brown char around the edges and are gooey on the inside.
