For the longest time I was convinced that pancakes were completely nutritionally void and therefore not worth eating. But then I grew a brain and realized that not only are they delicious, but with a few easy tweaks you can seriously up the nutrition quality! Replace white flour with whole wheat, replace ¼ cup of flour with ground flax, and sprinkle with hemp hearts to boost the fiber and omega-3 content. These vegan banana pancakes do not disappoint!
I hope you love these vegan banana pancakes! They are:
- Fluffy
- Nutritious
- Carb-y
- A little bit sweet
- & Delicious!
These vegan banana pancakes make the perfect special-occasion or entertaining breakfast!

- 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour

- Top with toppings of your choice. My personal favourite way to eat pancakes is with a healthy slathering of PB and berries!
