Ingredients
Pancake Batter
- 1 cup Rolled Oats
- 1 Ripe Banana
- 2 tbsp Vegan Vanilla Protein Powder
- ½ tsp Cinnamon
- 2 tbsp Ground Flax Seeds
- ½ tsp Baking Powder
- 8 tbsp Unsweetened Soy Milk
- 2 tbsp Maple Syrup
- 1 pinch Salt
Filling Options
- Coconut Yogurt
- Sliced Banana
- Diced Kiwi
- Sliced Strawberries
- Chopped Walnuts
- Nut Butter
Instructions
- Grind Oats: Place the rolled oats into a high-speed food processor and blend until they form a fine powder to create the base for your pancakes.
- Mix Batter Ingredients: Add the ripe banana, vegan vanilla protein powder, cinnamon, ground flax seeds, baking powder, unsweetened soy milk, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt to the food processor. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Rest Batter: Remove the batter from the processor and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the flax seeds and oats to absorb moisture and thicken the batter slightly.
- Heat Skillet: Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and lightly spray it with oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook Pancakes: Spoon about ¼ cup of the batter into the skillet and spread it out into a circle shape. Cook on medium heat until bubbles start to appear on the surface, then flip the pancake carefully.
- Finish Cooking: Cook the flipped side for an additional 3 minutes until the pancake is cooked through and golden brown.
- Repeat: Continue cooking with the remaining batter, repeating the process until all pancakes are done.
- Fill Pancakes: Allow the pancakes to cool slightly, then fill them with coconut yogurt and your choice of sliced banana, diced kiwi, sliced strawberries, chopped walnuts, and nut butter to create delicious pancake tacos.
Notes
- Use a non-stick skillet or lightly oil your pan to prevent pancakes from sticking.
- Allowing the batter to rest helps improve texture and binding.
- Feel free to substitute soy milk with any other plant-based milk as preferred.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup depending on your taste.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a dash of vanilla extract to the batter.
- These pancakes freeze well; reheat in a toaster or skillet for a quick breakfast.
