Method
- For the batter: Melt 2 tbsp of oil on the hob or in a microwave until melted. Add the other batter ingredients and mix until smooth.
- Heat a little bit of coconut oil in a frying pan and spoon 1-2tbsp of pancake mix into the pan. Smooth into a circle with the back of your spoon. Fry for 2-3mins on either side, or until they have small air holes and have started to colour. Repeat for the rest of the batter.
- For the salted caramel: Open coconut milk can and add to pan, before stirring in the coconut sugar and salt. Boil down for 7- 8 min.
- Stack your pancakes on top of each other, adding your salted caramel sauce and other toppings. These could include slices of fruit, as shown - along with a dusting grated cacao nibs.
Top tips for making vegan pancakes with banana:
The vegan pancake batter is particularly delicate, so be careful not to overmix or cook the mixture on a high heat. Otherwise, they'll end up with a dense consistency.
