Vegan Banana Pancakes

These vegan pancakes are quick and easy to make for a wholesome breakfast. Why not experiment with different flavour combinations – for example you could swap out the cinnamon for lemon zest and frozen blueberries. Serve with a generous drizzle of nut butter for some extra protein.

Serves: 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups (180 g) rolled oats
  • 2 overripe bananas
  • 1½ cups (375 ml) soy milk, plus extra if needed
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • Small amount of olive oil, for cooking
  • Chopped fruit, to serve
  • 100% natural nut butter of your choice, at room temperature or melted slightly, to serve

METHOD

  1. Combine the oats, banana, soy milk, cinnamon and baking powder in a blender. Blend for 1 minute or until smooth.

  2. Set aside for 5 minutes to rest and thicken. If the batter is too thick for your liking, stir in some extra soy milk until the batter reaches your desired consistency.

  3. Heat a small amount of oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat. Pour in the pancake batter until it fills three-quarters of the pan. Cook for 2 minutes, until you start to see bubbles forming on the surface. Flip the pancake and cook for another 2–4 minutes, until golden.

  4. Remove the pancake from the pan and continue until all the batter is used. If you have a large frying pan or griddle pan you could cook more than one at a time.

  5. Serve the pancakes warm, topped with chopped fruit and drizzled with nut butter.

Recipe
Portuguese Chicken and Fries

Think of this as exactly what Nando’s wishes it was: vibrant spicy chicken with crispy skin served with crunchy fries and a spicy dipping sauce. Piri piri chillies aren’t widely available in Australia, unless you grow them yourself, but bird’s-eye chillies are easy to find and they do the trick.

I don’t remember much about the circumstances of my first cherry clafoutis. But I must have loved the classic French farmhouse dessert, because I’ve been trying to reproduce that first custardy, almond-scented pancake ever since.

Panang-style beef with coconut rice

Not quite a red curry, not quite a satay, this dish is the best of both worlds, inspired by Thai flavours and it is divine. It’s a throw-and-go recipe and I know we all love those at BOL. Perfect served with creamy coconut rice, some sliced red chilli and flatbreads.

Rick stein’s mini brioche toasts with whipped feta, fresh figs and pickled walnuts

‘I always think that canapés should box slightly above their weight – in other words, they need to be vividly flavoured to succeed. Here, the combination of crisp brioche, salty feta, pickled walnuts, figs, honey and thyme is just that. If you like, there’s a recipe for pickling your own green walnuts on page 275 of Rick Stein’s Christmas. You can also make this with slices of goat’s cheese from a log instead of the whipped feta.’
