Chia Seeds Pancakes Sugary Treats

[Recipe] Almond Meal & Chia Seeds Pancakes, Flourless, Vegan Friendly & Gluten Free

Flourless Chia Seeds Pancakes, Vegan Friendly & Gluten Free | www.fussfreecooking.com

I love trying new ways of making pancakes.  Case in point the easy and healthy overnight porridge pancakes, the fluffy blueberry yoghurt pancakes and, every now and again, I miss savoury pancakes like cheesy cornflakes pancakes and the wacky mac ‘n’ cheese pancakes.

Having friends with special dietary requirements in mind, I wanted to try a pancake recipe which can be both vegan friendly and gluten free. As an avid home cook, I like to be ready for all kinds of dietary requirements that come my way.

Being flourless, these pancakes are dense, resembling more like hotcakes than the conventional fluffly pancakes that we are accustomed to. And because of this, I have decided to make them into 8 mini pancakes instead of the larger sized pancakes.

When topped with seasonal fruits, which in my case I have adorned my favourite autumnal fruit, persimmons and generous drizzle of maple syrup, they became just like any other delicious breakfast pancakes!

Almond Meal & Chia Seeds Pancakes, Flourless, Vegan Friendly & Gluten Free

Makes about 8 mini pancakes

Almond Meal & Chia Seeds Pancakes, Flourless, Vegan Friendly & Gluten Free

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsps chia seeds
  • 6 Tbsps water
  • 1 cup almond meal
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • A pinch of salt
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 Tbsps oil
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup

Instructions

  1. To make chia seeds gel (to replace two eggs), mix 2 tablespoons of chia seeds with 6 tablespoons of water. Allow the mixture to sit for 10 to 15 minutes until it becomes gel.
  2. In a large measuring jug, add the dry ingredients - almond meal, baking powder and stir with a fork until well combined.
  3. Then add the wet ingredients - water, oil, maple syrup and chia seeds gel into the dry ingredients. Stir until well mixed. Unlike the conventional pancake batter which is pourable, this flourless version resembles thick muffin batter.
  4. Lightly grease a small pan with cooking oil and place over medium flame. When the pan is hot, spoon a tablespoon full of batter, gently flattened with the back of the spoon. Cook the pancake over low-medium heat until the pancake are golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining batter. (Note - start by cooking one at a time to familiarise with the batter i,e, the time it will take you to flip the pancake etc.)
  5. Serve with seasonal fruits and maple syrup.

    Hi! Nice post, thanks!

    I’ve been trying to make chia pancakes, but it’s a fail every time! While the pancakes are burning, the top is still wet. I bake in a generous amount of coconut oil.

    These are the variations I tried:

    2 TB chia-gel + 1 TB rolled oats + 1 ts agave + salt. Hmm.
    Didn’t do the job.

    Let’s try to mix 1/8 ts baking soda and 1/4 ts lemon juice into the same batter.
    Nope.

    Maybe the agave causes the pancake to burn? So I left that out.
    Sadly, still no pancake.

    Maybe the batter is too dry? So I mixed the oats to make oatmeal;
    2 TB chia gel + 2 TB oat meal + 1/2 apple mixed with 2 TS water + salt
    EEEEW! YAK! No need to try this.

    Still hungry for pancakes! Any idea how to fix this?
