Vegan Matcha Pancakes

Vegan Matcha Pancakes

These vegan matcha pancakes with caramelised banana, pecans and maple syrup are so good you don’t even have to be a fan of matcha to love them. Or be vegan, for that matter. They’re as easy to make as any other pancakes, just as fluffy, but with an extra flavour kick that turns them from a Sunday brunch classic to a foodie’s delight.

ingredients
 

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder⁠
  • 1 tablespoon matcha powder
  • 1 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

Caramelised Bananas

instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and matcha.⁠
  • In a separate medium bowl or liquid measuring cup, mix milk, apple cider vinegar, almond extract and maple syrup, and stir to combine.⁠
  • Pour the liquid mixture into the dry mixture and whisk until smooth.⁠
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.⁠
  • Pour about ½ cup of the batter onto a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. When the top begins to bubble, flip the pancake and cook until golden.⁠

Caramelised Bananas

  • Slice bananas into thick coins. Pour cinnamon and sugar mixture onto a plate. Roll banana slices in sugar, until completely coated.⁠
  • Grease a medium size nonstick pan with coconut oil, and heat over medium high heat. Add bananas and remaining cinnamon sugar.⁠
  • Cook bananas until light to golden brown underneath, about 4-5 minutes.⁠
  • Gently flip bananas over to brown other side, turning heat down to medium. The second side will brown in about one minute.⁠
  • Top pancakes with caramelised bananas, chopped pecans and a drizzle of maple syrup.

notes

  • Storing Instructions: Stored in an airtight container in the fridge, these matcha pancakes will stay fresh for at least 3 days. If you’re planning to make them ahead, reheat them in the microwave before serving and top with freshly caramelised bananas.
