Vegan banana & hemp pancakes

If you wake up on weekends craving delicious brunch-style food like we do, then these pancakes will tick all of the boxes! A perfect comforting start to your weekend.

You can expect them to come out fluffy, warm and filling!

Ripe banana gives the batter its natural sweetness, so there’s no sugar in the batter itself, while hemp and flax seeds add a lovely nutty flavour and a little texture.

This recipe makes approximately 8 pancakes, which is perfect for two people. Adjust the recipe as needed and enjoy!
