Ingredients
Ingredients (for about 8 small pancakes):
For the pancakes:
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 tablespoons fine psyllium husk powder
- 80 g oat flour (or ground oat flakes)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 pinch of salt
- 200 ml plant-based milk (e.g. almond or oat milk)
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup or sweetener of choice (optional)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil for frying
For the apple compote:
- 2 apples, cored and diced
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 50 ml of water
- 1 pinch cinnamon and nutmeg (optional)
Here's how it's done:
Prepare apple compote:
- Apple pieces, lemon juice, maple syrup, water and Bring spices to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the apple pieces are soft and a thick compote forms. Keep warm.
Prepare pancake batter:
- Mash the banana finely in a bowl with a fork.
- Add plant-based milk and optionally maple syrup and mix well.
- Mix oat flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a separate bowl.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix quickly. The dough will become a little thick after a short time - this is normal. If it is too thick, add a splash of plant-based milk.
Frying pancakes:
- Heat a non-stick pan with some coconut oil over medium heat.
- For each pancake, add about 2 tablespoons of batter into the pan and gently flatten it.
- Bake the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on a medium heat until bubbles form. Then turn and Bake for 3 minutes.
The fine psyllium husk powder provides extra fluffiness and promotes digestion – a double pleasure! 🎉
Bon appetit! 😊
