Apple & Feijoa Spiced Pancakes
(Makes 10 Pancakes)
These pancakes are gluten-free, low sugar, nut-free, soy-free and fibre rich.
Ingredients
- 1 ⅓ cup plant-based milk
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 Tbsp chia seed, ground
- 6 Tbsp water
- 1 cup buckwheat, ground
- 2 Tbsp Maple Syrup (or sweetener of choice)
- 1 Apple, pureed
- 1 Feijoa, flesh pureed (optional)
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon, ginger
- Pinch of nutmeg, cardamom
To Serve
A dollop of coconut yoghurt, fresh or stewed fruit, nut butter, edible flowers and a drizzle of maple syrup.
Directions
Begin by mixing nut milk with apple cider vinegar in a bowl, and allow to sit while preparing the rest. This creates a type of buttermilk.
Blend chia seeds in a dry blender, mix in a small bowl with water and allow to replicate an egg texture.
Blend buckwheat grouts in a dry blender to form a flour-like consistency.
Add all remaining ingredients to blender until well incorporated, including the chia egg and milk mixture.
Bring a frying pan to medium-low heat, and add a little oil unless using a non-stick pan. Spoon 1/3 cup batter and cook on one side for 4 mins or flip when bibbling and browning. Allow for two minutes on the second side.
