I’m really getting into this “single-serving” thing!
Yesterday, I was treated to breakfast, courtesy of my younger sister.
But to understand how yesterday’s breakfast came into fruition, I must take you back (in my super-cool time machine) to Christmas Day. Seeing how I have so many cupcake recipes on the blog, my sister decided to give me the following gift:
Too cute, right? Check out the expiration date. (She also gave me a copy of Vegan Cupcakes take over the World and a music CD. I already own the cookbook. But hey, who doesn’t like store credit at Barnes’n Noble?)
While I debated what cupcakes to choose, I asked little sister to make me something else: Vegan Banana Pancakes!
Banana Pancakes for One
- 1/3 cup ww pastry, spelt, white, or Bob’s gf flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 mashed banana, as ripe as possible
- 1/4 cup milk of choice
- dash salt
Mix the dry ingredients together. In a separate bowl, mash the banana and then add the other liquid ingredients. Stir the dry into the wet. Then make your vegan banana pancakes! (Makes 4-5)
Try topping these with syrup or even my recipe for {Healthy} Homemade Nutella.

















Katie, this is my family’s favorite pancake recipe! I make this weekly when we have overripe bananas. I always cut up the other half of the banana in chunks and add it in. The banana chunks make the pancakes so delicious and plump.
I’ve played around with the recipe many times. I’ve used whole wheat pastry, spelt, Kamut, and barley flour – all with great success.
I sometimes decrease the liquid and add a 1/2-1t of coconut oil.
I also like to add cinnamon too.
I’ve doubled and tripled the batch with great results!
With the banana chunks added, I always get 3 fluffy pancakes from the single serving recipe.
Thank you!!
This is my new favorite pancake recipe. I have made it multiple times on the stove, and it was so refreshing to have pancakes for breakfast on a weekday! This morning, I tried baking the batter, as I was too impatient (read: sleepy) to stand over a skillet. Even better–almost like individual banana bread in a ramekin. The only changes I made were to add cinnamon, since I add cinnamon to most things I make for breakfast. This is definitely going in my usual breakfast rotation, baked or on the stove!
Delicious topped with raspberry compote! Used white flour instead of gf. Best vegan pancake recipe I have tried so far.
