Whole Wheat Banana Walnut Nutmeg Pancakes


I'm getting so into pancakes lately!! This morning I woke up and said to my mom "if you make the coffee I'll make the pancakes". And pancakes are pretty easy to make vegan. You just need the liquid, the flour, and the b powder. No eggs, no butter or milk necessary. They are so versatile and so much fun to cook. I'm perfecting my flipping technique. Needs work.

Ingredients:

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tbsp white sugar
1 1/2 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp nutmeg
Dash of salt

2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 cup of water- more as needed to thin the batter to the right consistency
1/4 cup buttermilk or regular milk or soymilk

2 Bananas- cut up
Handful of walnuts- chopped up

Method:

Combine all dry goods (1st paragraph of ingredients) in one bowl, set aside.
Combine all wet ingredients (2nd paragraph) in another bowl, set aside.
Mix dry into wet, just til combined.
You may need to add more water at this point to get the right consistency. It should be like thick soup.
Add bananas and walnuts and mix til just combined.

Heat your skillet to med-high heat and melt some butter on the pan.
Drop on a small tester pancake and wait until it starts to bubble, then flip it and let it cook for another 20 seconds or so, when it comes free of the pan easily it's done.
Now you know your pan is properly heated and you can cook the rest.
