Enjoy fluffy, delicious vegan pancakes made with ripe bananas and nutrient-rich chia seeds. This easy recipe uses simple ingredients for a satisfying plant-based breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsweetened plant-based milk
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil, plus more for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth.
  2. Add the flour, chia seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the bowl. Stir to combine.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the plant-based milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Stir in 1 tablespoon of neutral oil.
  6. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  7. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  8. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Ensure your banana is very ripe for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Chia seeds will absorb liquid and help bind the batter, contributing to a fluffy texture.
  • Adjust the amount of plant-based milk if the batter is too thick or too thin.
