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.
















Loved these pancakes!! Wrote about them in my blog for “January Favorites” Thanks Katie 🙂 elizanaomi.tumblr.com
Yesterday I made these for my friend [without the vanilla extract and with cinnamon] and she loved them! When I told her that they were vegan, she was even more surprised haha! Today I made them for myself, with vanilla extract, cinnamon, and topped with freshly ground almond butter and some agave nectar. HOLY YUM. so good! As always, your recipes are tres delicioso, Katie 😀
Awww that really makes me so happy!
Holy crow, these were delicious! I’m not usually huge on banana in things other than banana bread, but these totally won me over. I had them with Earth Balance and hot maple syrup, and good golly were they delicious. I added 1/4 tsp cinnamon to the batter and sprinkled a little more over the syrup. Mmmm…
Also, the portion size was perfect! I love the single-serving thing — it’s weirdly kind of validating for a single gal like me 🙂
mmmmmm Just made these for breakfast! SO yummy!! 🙂 Topped em’ with yogurt 😉
i’m eating these right now. soooo goood!
This was a life-saver today! I was going to make my stand-by banana protein pancakes for a playdate this morning — and then realized my cottage cheese was past its expiry! AH! (yes, I’m not completely vegan…)
Luckily, I knew if I came on here and looked for another recipe and found a perfect replacement! I know with your recipes that I don’t have to do a test batch — they are sure to be delicious! Thanks!
I’ve been making these incessantly and decided this morning (pre workout) that I needed a few more calories, so along with smothering these delicious, easy pancakes with a ton of coconut butter and a bit of honey, I also added 1 Tbsp of melted coconut butter to the batter ( I use a blend of spelt and kamut for the flour) and they turned out super yummy!
Oh wow, I’m going to have to try that! Coconut butter is my very best friend. Ok, maybe it’s a tie with chocolate. Shhh don’t tell chocolate ;).
I love your recipes. I wanted to make the banana pancakes for my family (5 total), but didn’t have enough bananas when I multiplied by 6, so I made some adjustments — for the flour I used 2/3 cups each of whole wheat pastry flour (like your recipe), cake flour (not sure if that’s vegan), and spelt flour. Since I only had 1 banana, I used the banana and 6 tsp of applesauce. Instead of all vanilla extract, I used 1 tsp vanilla extract and 1 1/4 tsp almond extract. I also added 6 tsp of finely chopped walnuts and 1 tsp of cinnamon. Other ingrdients stayed the same. After done, I topped with a thin layer of fresh peanut butter and a small drizzle of maple syrup. Everyone loved them. Thanks for inspiring me with your fantastic recipes !!!!!!
Sounds delicious!! And yes, cake flour is definitely vegan too :).
made these and topped them with agave nectar and sliced banans…ohmygodyum <3
This recipe is my go-to recipe for pancakes! Especially because I always have pancakes at hand! I calculated the calorie count for the entire recipe, using Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze and Quaker 1 min Quick Oats and the total is 181.8 calories, 3.1 grams of fat, 9.4 grams of sugar, and 4.3 grams of protein. If you add a tablespoon of mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, the calorie count gets boosted up to 251.8 calories. I made these this morning with a tablespoon of mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, a drizzle of honey, and a smidge of butter! So yumm
