Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp cinnamon
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 1 large ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Whisk flour, flaxseed, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Tip: For extra fluffy pancakes, sift the dry ingredients
  2. In another bowl, mash banana then whisk in almond milk, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla. Tip: Leave small banana chunks for texture
  3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Stir until just combined (batter will be thick). Tip: Lumps are okay—overmixing makes tough pancakes
  4. Heat skillet over medium. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form (2-3 minutes), then flip and cook 1-2 minutes more. Tip: Keep pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while cooking the rest
