Apple Donut Pancakes

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Servings 3
Suitable For 12m+

Ingredients

Pancake Batter Ingredients

  • 60 g oat flour
  • 1/2 banana (100g)
  • 80 ml soy milk
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

Other Ingredients

  • 2 apple
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil (for cooking)

Instructions 

  • Blend all the pancake batter ingredients together (or whatever pancakes you usually make).
  • Preheat a large frypan over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. 
  • Then prepare the apples by peeling and then slicing them through the core so each piece can have a circle cut through them to create a donut shape. Use a cookie cutter or similar to cut the core out, leaving a hole. Dip each slice of apple into the pancake batter then place in the frypan. 
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes each side.
  • Serve plain or with toppings (we did a very thin spread of nut butter with desiccated coconut, chia jam and coconut, and coconut yogurt with ground flaxseed).

Storage

Store leftovers in the fridge for 3 days. 

Notes

❗️To make this suitable for 6 -12 months make sure to slice the apples very thin and cook on a lower heat and for and longer time to ensure they are soft when serving.
