Rum-Butter Glaze
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon butter flavoring
1/4 teaspoon imitation rum flavoring
Pancakes
Nonstick Spray
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 heaping teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup vegetable oil or 1/4 cup melted butter
Rum-butter Glaze:
Combine sugars, corn syrup, and water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugars dissolve and mixture begins to boil. Simmer for 1 minute, remove from heat and add flavorings.
Pancakes
Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
In another bowl, beat the egg with an electric mixer. Mix in buttermilk, mashed banana, (if using), and butter.
Add the dry ingredients to the egg buttermilk mixture stirring only until smooth.
Preheat a griddle or large skillet to medium heat. Spray cooking surface with a coating of non-stick spray. Cook on a hot, greased griddle, using about 1/2 cup of batter for each pancake. Press three banana slices onto each pancake and sprinkle 2 teaspoons of chopped macadamia nuts. Cook until bubbly, a little dry around the edges, and lightly browned on the bottom. Flip and brown the other side.
Serve a stack of two pancakes, drizzled with rum-butter glaze, and then sprinkle with an additional tablespoon of chopped macadamia nuts, and crown with a swirl of whipped cream.
