Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes

Servings 2 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 2 cup soy milk
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 4 dates if you don't have dates, use 1-2 tbsp agave or maple syrup instead
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • vegan margarine or oil for cooking

Instructions
 

  • Making the vegan pancake batter is super simple! Just place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
  • If you don’t have a blender, first mash up the banana in a mixing bowl with a fork. then add the rest of the ingredients and whisk until smooth. Without blender, you are not able to get dates smooth enough so I recommend agave syrup instead if you don't like pieces in your batter.
  • Heat up a pan to medium-high heat with some vegan margarine ( or use oil instead ) and then add in around 2 spoonfuls of batter for each pancake. I made 3-4 pancakes at once in a medium size pan. When pancakes start to look a little dry along the edges and with few bubbles on top, flip them and cook on the other side until browned a bit.
  • Serve with agave or maple syrup, fresh fruit or berries, or any dessert sauce of choice.
