Whole Wheat Pancakes (Vegan) with fruit

This is a healthy and very tasty pancake recipe you can make for your kids, without the bad ingredients in packaged mixes, and with the benefits of ground flax seed (fiber, protein, Omega 3s) and whole wheat flour (protein, fiber).

These are topped with lots of fresh fruit, instead of syrup, or you can make your own fruit syrup (put pears or peaches in the food processor, add a little honey or pure maple syrup).

I based this off of a recipe I got when I was a missionary in Brazil. The friend who gave it to me was American, so these are not Brazilian pancakes unfortunately. :) But these are way better than any packaged mix I've had.

Whole Wheat Pancakes (Vegan)


These are not raw, but with the loads of fruit piled on top, your meal can be mostly raw! (See below) 



1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup unsweetened Almond Milk (or Rice Milk) (add a little more for a thinner consistency)
1/2 banana, mashed (this is the egg substitute)
2 Tbsp raw honey
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
3 Tbsp ground flaxseed
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil

Mix all ingredients and cook on medium heat, flipping once until done. Enjoy!


Special thanks to my husband for making these delicious pancakes this morning and adding the banana instead of egg (because we were all out) to make them vegan. He always makes the pancakes at our house and they always turn out great- way better than I make them. Thanks babe!
