Banana Walnut Pancakes
Fluffy and light golden vegan pancakes filled with morsels of banana and walnuts.
Equipment
- griddle or stove
Ingredients
- 2 bananas
- 1 ¾ cup almond milk
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp almond extract
- ½ cup apple sauce
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup white wheat flour
- 2 Tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ½ cup coarsely chopped walnuts
- Spray oil or vegan butter for griddle optional
Instructions
- Preheat electric griddle to 325°F (or non-stick skillet on stove to medium heat).
- Mash bananas in a large bowl.
- Add the almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla, almond extract, and apple sauce and stir to combine.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture.
- Stir just until combined.
- Allow the batter to rest 5-10 minutes.
- Using a 1/2 cup measuring cup, scoop batter and pour onto the hot griddle.
- Allow to cook until the edges are dry and bubbles form on the center, about 3-4 minutes.
- Flip over and wait another 3-4 minutes, until golden brown.
- Remove from the griddle.
- Serve with pure maple syrup.
Notes
You may substitute any non-dairy milk for the almond milk.
If you don’t like the flavor of almond extract, simply use vanilla instead.
A large griddle (stovetop or electric) makes these pancakes quickly in two rounds.
