Vegan Quinoa Pancakes with Banana

Quinoa is an ancient grain used by the South American Indians but it is getting more commonly used. However quinoa flour is not quite as commonly used yet so I wanted to share a recipe using quinoa flour. Quinoa flour is one of the most nutritious flour available. It is very high in protein, gluten-free and high in iron. I recommend you try it. These quinoa banana pancakes are a great way to use quinoa flour or it is also good for baking cakes. You can find quinoa flour in most health food shops, some supermarkets and bulk food shops.

Substitutions when making my quinoa flour pancake recipe:
if you don’t have quinoa flour you can use buckwheat flour or wholemeal flour. If you don’t have flax seed meal you could add 1 tbsp chia seeds or use 1 tsp egg replacer.
You could also top them with chia jam or chocolate sauce if you preferred. Or with extra maple and lemon juice- my husband’s favourite way to have pancakes!
