  • 200g spelt flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tbsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp salt

Preparation

  1. Make the batter. Mash one of the bananas in a large bowl, and whisk in the Alpro Almond drink, agave syrup and sunflower oil until it's well mixed together.
  2. In a seperate bowl, sift together all the dry ingredients then tip them into the Alpro Almond mixture and whisk until blended.
  3. Cut the 2 remaining bananas into 12 slices.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled frying pan over a medium heat and lightly sauté the first 3 banana slices for 30 seconds or so.
  5. Pour 2-3 tbsp of batter over the banana and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the pancake base is set and bubbles pop up over the top. Flip the little pancake, together with the banana slices underneath, and cook the other side for a minute.
  6. Repeat 3 times until all the batter and banana slices are used up. Serve piping hot with your favourite fruit. Yummy scrummy!

Total time: 45 minutes 

Ingredients: 
For the pancakes
200g plain flour
1 tbsp baking powder
Pinch salt
180ml Alpro Oat Unsweetened drink
2 medium free-range eggs, beaten
Vegetable oil, for frying
Alpro Plain No Sugars Big Pot to serve

For the salsa
2 ripe avocado, 1cm dice
100g cherry tomatoes, quartered
1/2 x 300g tin sweetcorn, drained
30g bunch coriander, roughly chopped
1 red onion, finely chopped
2 limes, juiced, plus extra wedges to serve
1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
Salt & pepper

Tip:
Flours vary, so you may need to add a little more Alpro Oat Unsweetened drink to reach a pourable pancake consistency. It needs to still hold its shape in the pan to form the American style pancakes, so try before adding more drink. 

Method:
1.	To make American-style pancakes put the flour and baking powder in a large bowl with a pinch of salt. In a jug, whisk the Alpro Oat Unsweetened drink with eggs.
2.	Mix all the salsa ingredients together and set aside.
3.	Use a balloon whisk to gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry to make a pancake batter. Brush a non-stick frying pan with more vegetable oil then pour in batter to make small 10cm pancakes, about 2-3 tbsp of batter. Cook until bubbles form on the surface then flip and cook until other side is golden. This will be about 2-3 minutes on each side. 
4.	 Serve 2-3 pancakes a person with a spoonful of Alpro Plain No Sugars Big Pot and the salsa and extra lime wedges.
