Easy Vegan Banana Pancakes

These are the best vegan banana pancakes I have ever made. They are eggless, but you would never know it because they are moist, fluffy, light, and have a great banana flavor. The best part is that you do not need any sugar, gluten, or oil to make them.

Equipment

  • Non-stick frying pan (10.5 inch / 26 cm)
  • Electronic pancake griddle (22-inch)
  • Cup measure set
  • Pancake batter dispenser

Ingredients

  • 2 Banana large (approx. 4 oz per banana)
  • 1 Tbsp Peanut butter
  • 1 cup White rice flour
  • 1 Tbsp Tapioca starch
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • ½ cup Dairy-free milk (homemade cashew milk)
  • 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract optional
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Peel and cut banana into smaller chunks.
  • Add apple cider vinegar to your choice of dairy-free milk and wait a couple of minutes.
  • Take a mixing bowl and smash the bananas with a fork until you reach an eggy consistency.
  • Add peanut butter and mix it well. Then add milk and apple cider vinegar mixture and stir until combined.
  • Finally, add the rice flour, tapioca starch, and baking powder. Mix it again thoroughly. Now, you are ready to heat up your griddle or non-stick frying pan.
  • Spoon 1/4 - 1/3 cup of the batter onto skillet and flip when bubbles appear and edges harden. Use low-medium heat to make sure that the pancakes are cooked thoroughly. 
  • Cover the cooked pancakes until you're ready to eat them as pancakes are always better when they are warm. 
  • When served, use your favorite toppings. See ideas Notes.

Notes

Add-ins

  • Fresh blueberries - You can add the blueberries to the batter and mix it in the bowl. However, what I like more is that I add the blueberries while the first side is cooking. Just take a couple and pop them by hand. Then flip. This is to make sure every pancake is loaded with blueberries.
  • Chocolate chips - I would say it is another obvious choice. Mix in the batter some chocolate chips and go from there.
  • Any fruit really - You can add any fruit you like. We made them with chopped strawberries, mixed berries, shredded apple with cinnamon.
  • Chopped nuts - Any type you like.
  • Dried fruits like cranberries or raisins
  • Citrus zest - Add a tablespoon of lemon or orange zest. So yummy, especially lemon combined with blueberries.
  • Vanilla extract - I can definitely taste the bananas. If you don't want that add vanilla extract or any of the above add-ins to overpower it.
  • Cocoa powder - Add a tablespoon, if you want to turn them into chocolate pancakes.

Topping suggestions

  • Fresh fruit or fruit sauces (like this quick strawberry puree)
  • Whipped cream
  • Vegan chocolate frosting, which is actually coconut whipped cream
  • Nutella
  • Banana slices
  • Chocolate chips or chocolate sauce
  • Caramel sauce
  • Toasted nuts
