Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • ½ cup mashed banana about 1 large
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil plus more for brushing
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons almond milk plus more if needed
  • cups whole wheat pastry flour *
  • ½ cup oat flour **
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • Heaping ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • Maple syrup for serving

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the flaxseed, water, and banana. Mash and stir until well combined. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
  • Add the olive oil, vanilla, and almond milk and whisk.
  • Add the flour and sprinkle the baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt evenly over the top. Stir until all the ingredients are combined, but the batter is still a bit lumpy. The batter will be a bit thick but if it’s too thick to scoop, stir in an additional 1 tablespoon almond milk.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle to medium heat. Brush the skillet with a little olive oil and use a ⅓-cup measuring cup to pour the batter onto the pan. Use the back of the cup to gently spread the batter a little more.
  • Cook the pancakes until bubbles appear, about 1½ minutes per side, turning the heat to low as needed so that the middles cook without burning the outsides. I usually start with medium heat and move to low heat as my pan starts to hold residual heat after each batch.
  • Serve with maple syrup, sliced bananas, and pecans, if desired.
