A Healthy Pancake?!?!


you know how pancake day only comes around once a year? not in the strawberry sister household! we like to keep this delish treat close to our kitchens and stomachs at all times of the year. now anyone can make a normal pancake but it takes a special strawb to make one that's both gluten free AND vegan yeah that's right - we haven't forgotten about you guys we've trialled out the perf recipe just for you or if y'all just fancy a slightly healthier alternative
your four core ingredients are: 2 supery-doopery ripe bananas 1 cup almond milk 1 cup buckwheat flour (or any flour you particularly desire) 3 chia eggs - but don't worry we'll explain all about this in a mo just make sure you have some chia seeds handy

ok so one chia egg is basically one tablespoon of chia seeds plus two tablespoons of water

so for this recipe you'll need three tablespoons of chia seeds and six of water

stir it aaaaaallllll up

and it should go super combined and goopy

JUST LIKE A NORMAL EGG clever eh?

you'll need to plop your chia eggs into a mixing bowl along with your two bananas

then measure out a cup of the flour

and add that into the bowl as well

another cheeky cup - this time of almond milk

and guess what you do with that?

yep you guessed it into the mixing bowl it goes

give everything a good whisk/mash/stir until it's super thick and creamy

you can totally keep it plain and go straight onto cooking

but today we decided to go for a half chocolate, half vanilla stack you know gots to be keeping it classic

so we split the batter in half and folded in 3 tablespoons of cacao powder and a few cacao nibs to one

and some vanilla and cinnamon to the other

no one wants a sticky pancake so grease that pan reaalll good

cook them exactly as you would any other pancake p.s. we stuck ours on a medium heat

okay okay so they may not have all ended up totally the exact same size/shape/colour

but that's what makes them so loveable

they're just so unique yo

you just can't not dribble them with maple syrup

and cos we're just so arty farty

we had to also plop on some cacao nibs (duh) and some strawbs (double duh)

check out that chocolate and vanilla layer action going on there

it's always recommended to take a cheeky selfie in between bites

the perfect breakfast-y dish for when your boring old cereal/toast/oatmeal/whatever-you-eat-in-the-mornings just isn't good enough p.s. we encourage eating while still in your pjs x
