Happy Pancake day!!! In honor of pancake day this weeks post is a bit early, so that you can feast your eyes on these super Fluffy Vegan Green Monster Kale Pancakes and maybe also cook up a batch to enjoy on this lovely pancake day π I mean how can a day called pancake day not be great π
As much as I love the pancakes themselves, I do love a great topping to top it all off π The topping should preferably be a combination of something fresh, sweet, crispy, gooey, and nutty! So for this stack of Fluffy Vegan Green Monster Kale Pancakes I topped it off with some apple sauce, fresh apples and dry roasted macadamia nuts. All I can say is: YUM!!
IF you are thinking – I must make these pancakes right now! Then here is how you do it! First mix together the dry ingredients (spelt flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt) in a bowl and set aside. Then add all of the wet ingredients including the kale (agave syrup, almond milk, olive oil, kale, apple sauce and apple cider vinegar) to a high speed blender and blend till you get a smooth green smoothie looking liquid. Then pour the green liquid into the dry ingredients and mix it well.
Add a little olive oil to a hot pan on medium heat, pour/place about two tablespoons of dough on the pan per pancake. Depending on the size of your pan you should be able to cook 2-4 pancakes at a time. Cook the pancakes for a few minutes until the bottom starts to slightly brown and the top of the pancake starts to set. Turn the pancake, and cook for a few minutes. If the pancakes brown too fast, lower the heat. This portion should yield about 15 pancakes.
Now stack them up, add your toppings and enjoy some pancakes π \o/

hi! What gluten free alternative to spelt flour would you suggest please? x
taniasurrow says
Hi Belle,
The only gluten free flour I have tried out in this recipe is oat flour, and I honestly didn’t really like it. So I can’t really give you a good answer at the moment.
For gluten free pancakes in general, you might want to check out Vegan8 or the minimalist baker. Or give my “Sweet Potato Pancakes with Oats” a try. If you use gluten free rolled oats, they are gluten free.
I wish you a lovely day,
Tania
