I love these pancakes so much I have made them everyday for a week, and just had to make my sweetheart's face into one. They are easy, kid friendly, and fun! If you have some old empty ketchup bottles you can add a little cocoa powder (like 1 tablespoon) to half the batter and use it to make outlines of your favorite people and characters.
Tools:
-Blender (This recipe doesn't work without being blended. I am not sure why, they don't hold together enough without it. The tricky part about GF vegan pancakes is that you can't use xanthan to bind it because it is gummy. And of course eggs are a no-no in our house. Oh the joys of GF baking!)
-scale
-griddle and all the other regular pancakes stuff
Recipe by grams:
14 g Chia Seeds
200 g water
50 g coconut oil (probably any cooking oil will do, I just LOVE coconut oil)
50 g organic white sugar (again, probably any type of sweetener will do)
5 g salt
80 g Millet Flour (also works with brown rice flour, but millet is a little more nutrient dense)
80 g Potato Starch (I am sure different types of starch would work, (with the exception of tapioca starch, I think it would be very gummy. I will test them and update this formula when I am sure.)
8 g Baking Powder
Blend on high for about a minute. If you have a Blendtec or Vitamin blender I would be careful not to let the batter get too warm and prematurely activate the baking powder.
Warm up the griddle to medium heat and have a pancake art party! I do this volume of batter for my family of four, but it can be easily doubled. The batter is only good for one use. I tried putting leftovers in the fridge, but it thickened up after a few hours.
