🛠 Kitchen Tools
Hand blender or high-speed blender
Non-stick frying pan
Spatula
Measuring cups and spoons
🧾 Ingredients
Makes 4–6 small pancakes
Banana: 1 ripe (medium to large)
Soy yogurt: 100 ml / 3.5 fl oz (plain or vanilla)
Vegan milk (e.g. oat, almond, or soy): ⅓ cup (approx. 80 ml)
Unsweetened cocoa powder: 1 tablespoon (approx. 7–8 g)
Whole wheat flour: 2 tablespoons (approx. 16 g)
Baking powder: 1 teaspoon
Optional: A pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract for extra flavor
👨🍳 Instructions
Blend the batterAdd the banana, soy yogurt, vegan milk, cocoa powder, whole wheat flour, and baking powder to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy, with no lumps. Let it rest for 2 minutes to thicken slightly.
Cook the pancakesHeat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease with a drizzle of oil. Pour small portions of the batter into the pan. Cook for 2–3 minutes on one side until bubbles form and edges lift. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until firm and golden.
Stack and serveStack the pancakes on a plate and add your favorite toppings — think fresh fruit, nut butter, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of melted dark chocolate (still sugar-free if you like!).
