- You can make them into muffins or microwave cake
For these pancakes you need:
- Eggs
- Plant-based milk
- Oat flakes
- Apple
- Carrot
- Vanilla Yummy drops or vanilla essence (optional but recommended)
- Coconut flour
Which plant-based milk to use?
Any will do, you can also use milk or egg whites.
Where to buy yummy drops? Can I substitute?
Yummy drops are essential to give a sweeter flavor to the recipe without adding sugar. To substitute you can put 1 dessert spoon of agave syrup or honey but it will add more calories and sugar. Another option is 1 coffee spoon of vanilla essence.
Why use coconut flour?
Coconut flour helps a lot with density, I use it so the batter gets thicker and the pancakes get fluffier without having to use more oat flakes. It is not a mandatory step, but you will feel a difference in the batter if you don't reduce the liquid amount or if you don't use more flakes to increase density.
