Weekend mornings are made for these! I almost hesitate to call them pancakes as they are almost more fritter-ish. Lots of banana flavour, and a lot denser than a typical pancake. if you are a fan of fluffy style pancakes these may not be your jam. But if you love the combo of warm banana vanilla flavours with maple syrup, then give these a try! With added plant protein and naturally GF buckwheat flour, these are full of nutrients and very satisfying. I like to make them listening to Jack Johnson's Banana Pancakes for that extra joy!

Breakfast
Ingredients
- 3 large quite ripe bananas
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 scoop Niyama Clean Plant Protein Vanilla
- 1/3 cup buckwheat flour (or sub another GF flour)
- pinch of sea salt
- coconut oil for frying
- maple syrup & fresh fruit for serving
Directions
- Mash the peeled bananas in a bowl until smooth and wet - some lumps are ok
- add the baking powder and stir well
- Add the sea salt, buckwheat and the protein powder and combine until you have a thick batter
- Heat your pan (i like a cast iron but you do you) and add 1 TBSP of coconut oil
- Drop about 2-3 TBSP batter per pancake into the pan, depending on how big you like them - smaller seems to work better with this thicker batter
- Cook for a minute or two until the bottom is golden brown then flip - don't wait for the bubble to form as they batter is thick so by they time they form the bottom may be overdone
- Lightly pat down with your spatula to disburse the middle and ensure they cook evenly. cook the second side, ensuring you cook all the way through
- Transfer to a plate and repeat until all the batter is gone - keep the first ones warm in the oven or just eat/serve as you go!
Garnish with fresh fruit and maple syrup
