Hey everyone, this is my entry for the #PancakeMaster Cinnamon Challenge, that Patty is hosting this month.

I always have lots of fun in the kitchen so was excited when I heard this month's challenge involved cooking!

I've tried a variety of vegan pancake recipes over the years. For this challenge, I combined a few simple ingredients from different recipes. I also created a fruit sauce with some ingredients I had in the fridge to drizzle over the pancakes.

On the first attempt, the pancake batter came out a bit too thick, I fixed it by adding more liquid little by little. The sauce on the other hand, was fantastic right on the first try! Yum!

I still needed to tweak the batter but was anxious to post something about my pancakes after the first attempt, so made a sneak peek video of my progress:

A couple days later, I tried the recipe again with the liquid adjustments and was happy with the results.

Here's the final recipe:

*Mango sauce*

🌿 1 Cup chopped fresh mango (can use frozen mango)

🌿 2 Tbsp fresh orange juice

🌿 3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice

🌿 ¼ Cup maple syrup

✋🏾 Blend everything until smooth

*Pancake batter*

Dry ingredients

🌿 1 ½ Cup oat flour

🌿 1 tsp baking powder

🌿 ¼ tsp salt

🌿 2 Tbsp coconut sugar

Wet ingredients

🌿 1 ½ Cup unsweetened non dairy milk (I used soy)

🌿 1 Tbsp flax seed meal (ground flax seeds)

🌿 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

🌿 ½ Cup plus 2 Tbsp water

🌿 ½ tsp vanilla extract

🌿 ¼ Cup vegan chocolate chips (optional)

✋🏾 Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl and mix them well

✋🏾 Combine milk, flax seeds and vinegar in another bowl and mix well until it foams a bit

✋🏾 Pour the milk mix into the dry mix

✋🏾 Add water and vanilla extract and mix to combine without overmixing, you can use a fork to get rid of clumps

✋🏾 Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes

✋🏾 Fold in the chocolate chips if using

✋🏾 Coat the skillet with a tiny bit of oil

✋🏾 Cook the pancakes for a few minutes on each side until golden brown

Serve the pancakes with blueberries, chopped walnuts and the mango sauce.
