The Ultimate Vegan Pancakes

Total time 25 minutes | Makes 8-10 pancakes, depending on size | Vegan | Nut Free Option

Ingredients

• 125g banana, mashed (approximately 1 medium banana)

• 240ml milk of choice

• 1.5 tbsp maple syrup

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 2 tsp baking powder

• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

• 1 pinch salt

• 120g plain flour

• 70g oat flour (simply blend oats in a high speed blender until a fine powder forms)

• 30g almond meal (or substitute for more plain flour)

Method

Step 1: In a large bowl, combine plain flour, oat flour, almond meal, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together mashed banana, milk, maple syrup and olive oil. Gently fold wet ingredients into dry until a batter forms.

Step 2: Place a large fry pan over medium heat and drizzle with a little olive oil. Spoon approximately 1/4 - 1/2 cup of batter into the pan; cook for 2-4 minutes on one side, or until bubbles start appearing on the surface, then flip and cook on other side for approximately 3 minutes.

Step 3: Serve with your choice of toppings. Some of my favourites are banana, berries, chocolate spread, nut butter or yoghurt!
