Opening my fridge, I knew I could cross of red peppers, kale, lettuce. She looks at me: "what about pancakes?". Only I don't have any eggs.
My other older niece is a vegan. She once made egg less pancakes using flaxseeds. So I knew it was possible. I googled.
Out popped this recipe:
1 cup flour (I used organic stone ground whole wheat)
2 tsp baking powder (I heaped them)
1 TB sugar (I used brown sugar)
1 cup milk (I used organic coconut milk)
1 TB vegetable oil (I used grape seed oil)
1TB water
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp cinnamon
2 TB butter (I added olive oil)
Seriously I had my doubts. There was nothing to stick it together. But it seemed good when I mixed it up. It was a bit frothy so maybe I didn't need to heap the baking powder. I heated a non stick pan and added a tiny bit of oil.
The one side browned up really nicely. I flipped them. It didn't take long. We dished them up with bananas, strawberries and real Canadian Maple Syrup.
They really were delicious. My little niece even asked for seconds. :)
I would definitely make these for company.
