Eggs, milk, honey – the ingredients and toppings for pancakes don’t exactly cover everyone’s dietary choices, so when a vegan recipe comes along we love to see it.
Whether you’re short on time or craving something tasty for breakfast, Sweet Freedom has you covered with three recipes even non-vegans will approve of.
Quick and easy pancakes
Serves: 4
Ready in: 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 200g your choice flour*
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 230ml plant based milk or water
- 2 tbsp Sweet Freedom Fruit Syrup
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted and cooled
- Extra coconut oil for frying
- Sweet Freedom Choc Shot for drizzling and berries
Method
- Blend all pancake ingredients together and pulse until smooth.
- Heat the coconut oil in your frying pan, then drop the batter into the hot pan, spread if needed as the batter is quite thick.
- Flip or turn when bubbles appear.
- Repeat with all batter and keep pancakes warm in a stack in a low oven.
- Serve warm topped with fresh berries and a drizzle of Sweet Freedom Choc Shot liquid chocolate.
*depending on flour you may need to use a more or less liquid, for example, coconut flour absorbs more liquid than say almond flour.
