I can’t remember the last time I made pancakes from a box mix. Even before I was vegan, I would always make pancakes from scratch because they were so simple to make. This all changed when I discovered blender pancakes.

Blender pancakes are even more simple to make than traditional pancakes, as they require no hand mixing and even less clean up. Just put all the ingredients in a blender, blend until smooth, and pour right out of the blender onto the pan.

Today I was craving a tall stack of pancakes, so I adapted my go-to blender pancake recipe to make them a little thinner. Made with wholesome ingredients like old fashioned oats, banana, and flax seeds, then topped with dark chocolate chips, shredded coconut, and homemade cacao sauce, they’re naturally vegan and gluten free.
