Vegan glutenfree pomegranate protein pancakes

Hello everyone,

after a few months of being absent, here is a brand new yummy recipe - vegan GF pomegranate protein pancakes! For a healthy, dairyfree and sugarfree breakfast (or lunch or dinner of dessert, you decide). Top them with any kind of nut butter or fruit - I decided for almond butter, dark chocolate pieces, more pomegranate seeds, banana coins, mandarin pieces and a sprinkle of homemade rawnola (raw granola). 

And then I went to pancake heaven...

Cook with me: Healthy Oreo Pancakes

Hello everyone,

I took a break from writing posts but now I'm back on track! August was just such a busy month. 
However, here is a new recipe for an amazing stack of Oreo pancakes, healthy and free from refined sugar! And by using dairyfree products, they are also vegan.
I uploaded a photo of them on Instagram (and many many more food photos - @crayonsandbeads) yesterday morning when having them for breakfast. I could rave about how deliciously they taste for days! One of the best chocolate pancakes I've eaten in my life, seriously.

If you want to taste a little bit of (chocolate) heaven, you should try the following recipe.

Recipe (for 6 pancakes):

Ingredients for the pancake batter:

4 tbsp spelt flour

4 tbsp raw cacao powder

2 tbsp liquid sweetener (honey/maple syrup)

2 tsp baking powder

4 tsp vanilla flavoured yogurt (vegan option - soy/coconut yogurt)

6-8 tbsp dairyfree milk

Ingredients for the filling:

1/3 cup vanilla flavoured yogurt (vegan option - soy/coconut yogurt)

1 tsp sweetener (honey/maple syrup/coconut palm sugar)

Preparation:

1. In a bowl, combine flour, cacao powder, sweetener and baking powder. Add yogurt and milk, but don't add too much milk because the batter shouldn't be too liquid. Mix very well.

2. Put two heaping tablespoons of batter per pancake on a greased skillet. Bake them on medium heat, a few minutes each side.

3. For the filling, mix together the yogurt and sweetener. Add it in between the pancakes.

Optional: Drizzle some chocolate syrup over them (1 tsp raw cacao powder + 1 tsp liquid sweetener + 1 tsp water).

Recept (za 6 palačink):

Sestavine za maso:

4 žlice pirine moke

4 žlice presnega kakava v prahu

2 žlici tekočega sladila (med/javorjev sirup)

2 žlički pecilnega praška

4 žličke vanilijevega jogurta (veganska opcija - sojin/kokosov jogurt)

6-8 žlic rastlinskega mleka

Sestavine za nadev:

1/3 skodelice vanilijevega jogurta (veganska opcija - sojin/kokosov jogurt)

1 žlička sladila (med/javorjev sirup/kokosov sladkor)

Priprava:

1. V posodi zmešamo moko, kakav, sladilo in pecilni prašek. Dodamo jogurt in mleko, vendar ne preveč, saj masa ne sme biti pretekoča. Dobro premešamo.

2. Na ponev damo po dve zvrhani žlici mase na palačinko. Pečemo na srednjem ognju, vsako stran nekaj minut.

3. Za nadev zmešamo jogurt in sladilo ter ga namažemo med palačinke.

Opcija: Na koncu lahko palačinke prelijemo še s čokoladnim sirupom (1 žlička presnega kakava v prahu + 1 žlička tekočega sladila + 1 žlička vode).
