Ingredients
  

  • 1 small ripe banana
  • ¾ cup all purpose flour
  • ¾ cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ tbsp flax meal
  • cup unsweetened non dairy milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, mash the banana using a fork. Set aside.
    1 small ripe banana
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, and flax meal (dry ingredients). Make a well in the middle of the mixture.
    ¾ cup all purpose flour, ¾ cup whole wheat flour, 1 tsp baking powder, ¼ tsp salt, ½ tbsp flax meal
  • Add the mashed banana into the well along with the non dairy and vanilla extract. Mix with a fork until there are no signs of dry flour. Do not overmix.

    mixed pancake batter.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet on medium high heat. If you’re using a pan without the non-stick coat, lightly brush the inside of the pan with vegetable oil, or spray some cooking spray. 
  • Scoop about ⅓ cup of batter into the pan. Depending on how big your pan is, scoop another ⅓ cup of batter into the pan to make a second pancake.

  • Fry the pancake for 2-3mins on the first side. Flip the pancakes and reduce heat to medium-low. Fry for another 2-3mins. Transfer to a serving plate or a cooling rack. 
    frying the second side of the pancake.
  • Repeat steps 5-6 until you have used all of the batter. 
  • Serve with your favourite pancake toppings and enjoy! 

Notes

  • If you’re making smaller pancakes, cook ¼ cup batter per pancake instead of ⅓ cup.
  • If you’re making large pancakes, use ½ cup batter per pancake.
  • Another hack for keeping the pancakes warm while you’re frying the rest of the batter is to keep the cooked pancakes in the microwave.
