Preparazione

1. 1

   --- MAKE THE FLAX 'EGGS': ---

2. 2

   Add the flaxseed meal and water together in a small bowl, stirring together until combined and letting it sit for 5 minutes until it becomes "paste-like".

3. 3

   --- TO MAKE THE BATTER: ---

4. 4

   Add the Almond milk and apple cider vinegar together in a small bowl, stirring together until combined and letting it sit for 5 minutes until it becomes "slightly thickened" and activated.

5. 5

   In a large bowl, add the flour, rolled oats, baking powder cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt together and whisk until combined.

6. 6

   Make a small well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add in the ACV-milk mixture, mashed bananas, vanilla, melted butter, and maple syrup, stirring gently (using a spatula) until just combined. DO NOT OVERMIX! NOTE: If the batter is way too thick and hard to stir, add additional milk, 1 Tbsp at a time until more smooth, yet still thick enough.

7. 7

   --- COOK THE PANCAKES: ---

8. 8

   Add 1 Tbsp of unsalted butter to a heated skillet over medium-high heat and wait until fully melted. Pour 1/2 cup of pancake batter unto the surface of the skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes (until batter begins to bubble) and gently flip pancake to it’s opposite side, cooking another 1-2 minutes. NOTE: Be sure to gently press down on pancake to ensure that center cooks through.

9. 9

   Once cooked and lightly brown on both sides, remove pancake from heat and repeat steps until all batter is used.

    To serve, stack pancakes onto one another and top with sliced bananas, a few sprinkles of rolled oats and lightly drizzle with maple syrup, if desired.
