Vegan banana pancakes with aquafaba 🍌🥞

Have you heard of aquafaba before?
It is a quite commonly used product in the plant-based food context. Usually it refers to a leftover liquid from the canned chickpeas and in most cases it is suitable for replacing eggs. 🐣

I usually use it for vegan mayo (Recipe here) but it is very useful for baking so I tried to put it in pancakes this time 🥞
Pancakes are not as fluffy because I used banana but feel free to replace it with more sugar or add more flour 👩‍🍳

You will need (for 10 small/medium pancakes)

• 75 g. wheat flour
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 50 ml. aquafaba (liquid from canned chickpeas)
• 1 small ripe banana
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 90 ml. soy or other plant-based milk
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil (for baking)

Instructions:

1. Whisk the aquafaba to a froth (whisk for about a couple of minutes), then add lemon juice, milk and mix.
2. Add mashed (with a fork) banana to the mixture.
3. Add flour, baking powder, sugar to the mixture. Mix until smooth.
4. Heat a pan with coconut oil, add 1-2 tablespoons of dough for each pancake and bake on both sides until lightly browned. You can add oil in case the pancakes stick to the pan.

Enjoy!
