Banana Nut Pancakes, originally uploaded by speedvegan.

I decided to make Banana Nut Pancakes this morning. Jose looked surprised. Apparently, he’s never had Banana Nut Pancakes before. He really is from another planet. That or he’s been very, very deprived. Somehow, I knew he’d love them.

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 tbsp sugar or substitute
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
1 cup soy milk (*)
1 tbsp canola oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 banana, mashed

1. Combine dry ingredients and walnuts.

2. In a separate bowl, combine soy milk, oil and vanilla extract. Add to dry mixture.

3. Add mashed banana. Mix until lumps disappear. Don’t overmix ! A couple of lumps are OK.

4. Cook on preheated, lightly oiled pan. Turn when bubbles form on surface and edges begin to dry.

(*) For thicker pancakes, use less soy milk. For thinner pancakes, use more soy milk.

I was right ! He loved them and asked me to make them again.
