Vitamix Pancakes: Easiest Pancake Recipe

These pancakes are naturally gluten free, flour free, no added sugar, plus if you don't eat eggs swap them with 1 tbsp of chia seeds to make it vegan.
I even made a fresh berry sauce to go with it and the entire recipe - pancakes and home-made sauce took me under 10 minutes to make from scratch. You don't have to make a fresh berry sauce, you can top with almond butter and maple syrup if you like, or whatever you fancy and have available in your kitchen.
There is no baking soda or baking powder or any ingredients to make it fluffy, they become fluffy just from using the blender. Give it a try and see for yourself how easy, tasty and satisfying this recipe is.
This recipe makes 4 pancakes and is very filling. If you are making for your family, double or thriple the recipe. Children tend to love this recipe. I know mine do. They are not so fond of oatmeal but love these pancakes, even thought they are made with Oats.

Equipment

  • 1 Vitamix Blender

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Oats (sprouted, rolled, quick or steel cut oats)
  • 1 egg (can swap egg with 1 tbsp Chia seeds)
  • 1 banana
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (unsweetened)
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence (pure)

Instructions

  • Add all of the above ingredients in the order mentioned and blend. Start on low and increase to high for about 30 seconds
  • Heat a cast iron pan, when hot, use coconut butter or any butter of your choice to grease the plan. Turn down the heat to medium low and pour your pancake batter into the pan. When you see a few air bubbles on each pancake, flip them and cook for a minute or so
  • Keep warm in the oven while you make your blackberry sauce (If you are making it)
  • Blackberry Sauce: I use 1/4 cup blackberries, 2 tbsp water, give it a quick boil, add, 1 tsp maple syrup and a generous pinch of cinnamon powder. Pour on top of pancakes and enjoy
