These pancakes are best served fresh as they are fluffy right off the girdle. With no gluten, the fluffyness tends to reduce on cooling.

Add spices or blends of choice for flavor, add some candied fruits, chocolate chips or nuts to the batter for variation

- a ripe banana
- old fashioned oats
- almond flour for a bit of hold, moisture and texture. You can use other ground up nuts or seeds such as sunflower or pumpkin. Some of these will add a stronger flavor.

- cinnamon or vanilla for flavor
- non dairy milk such as almond milk, soy milk, light coconut milk or oat milk

January 5, 2020 at 8:33 pmAny chance I can make these in a food processor? I don’t have a blender 🙁
Richa says
January 5, 2020 at 10:31 pmthey might be gritty, use oat flour
Maneesha says
January 6, 2020 at 5:53 amSo delicious! I ate this in a non-traditional way – I spread almond butter and chia jam on the pancake, rolled it up, and ate it! Like a thick crepe! Deelish!
Gustav says
January 7, 2020 at 12:15 pmThey are amazing, properly a new Sunday tradition. Pro tip: add peanut butter, who doesn’t like peanut butter and banana? Thanks for the recipe!

January 12, 2020 at 11:23 amThese cooked up nicely and held together well, but the texture was a bit dense, probably because my blender isn’t powerful enough to get the oats completely smooth. I saw your above comment about substituting oat flour – what quantity would you suggest?
Richa says
January 12, 2020 at 11:40 amSame amount
Belinda says
January 13, 2020 at 12:41 pmWould arrowroot powder work in place of tapioca starch? And if so, how much?

February 2, 2020 at 10:52 amIf I use your multigrain pancake mix, how much would be the right amount? 1 cup?
Richa says
February 2, 2020 at 11:32 amyes start with that much and add more if needed

Victoria says
April 24, 2020 at 10:52 amThank you! I love these pancakes. As I’m cooking for one, I wonder if I can refrigerate the leftover batter without affecting texture or taste. I halved the recipe once but that didn’t work as well.

April 24, 2020 at 11:53 amYes; up to two days.
Troels says

Cindy Easter says
May 16, 2020 at 9:41 amThis looks amazing but the maple syrop isn’t listed in the ingredients and its added in the batter in the video. I can’t wait to make this 🙂
Richa says
May 16, 2020 at 10:37 amAh forgot that. It’s optional 1 tbsp maple syrup if you want them sweeter
Barb says
May 30, 2020 at 10:25 amThese turned out so well … I confess I was genuinely surprised as I’m not a “great cook”. To clarify, I didn’t have the flour, tapioca or cornstarch, and still – preparation was easy, each pancake turned out “looking like a pancake” and tasted great. Even better with syrup! I can easily recommend this recipe for it’s ease in making, and either having more vegan-type meals or fiber in your diet.
