Ingredients

Pancake Batter

• ▢ 2 medium ripe bananas
• ▢ 1 cup (120 g) buckwheat flour
• ▢ 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
• ▢ 1 tsp baking powder
• ▢ 1 tsp baking soda
• ▢ 1 tsp vanilla extract
• ▢ 1 cup (236.59 ml) soy milk
• ▢ 1 cup (30 g) baby spinach (packed)

Blueberry Syrup

• ▢ 1.5 cups (222 g) frozen blueberries
• ▢ 1.5 tbsp chia seeds
• ▢ 1 lemon juice
• ▢ 4 tbsp water
• ▢ 1.5 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions

• In a bowl, mash the two bananas using a fork. Add the ground flaxseed, baking powder, baking soda, flour, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
• Blend the milk and spinach in a blender until smooth. Add this mixture to the bowl and stir until the batter is smooth and thoroughly combined.
• Heat a non-stick pan on low to medium heat. Pour approximately ¼ cup of batter into the pan. Cook the pancake for a couple of minutes until bubbles form on the top, then flip and cook for another minute. Repeat with the rest of the batter.
• While the pancakes are cooking, prepare the blueberry syrup. In a small pot, combine the frozen blueberries, lemon juice, chia seeds, water, and maple syrup. Bring to a slow boil for 5 minutes, then turn off the heat and mash the blueberries roughly with a fork.
• Serve the pancakes stacked and covered with the blueberry syrup. Enjoy this fantastic breakfast!
