4. Then add 1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar to the water and banana mix.

7. Wait a couple of minutes, then ladle in dollops of the mixture.
8. Leave them to cook for a couple of minutes on each side and then serve freshly cooked.

What to do with excess vegan pancake batter

If you make too much batter, I like to do one of two things.

1. Either I freeze the batter to use another time.
2. Or I make it into pancakes and freeze the pancakes to use at a later date.

You can keep the batter or the pancakes in the fridge to use the next day. But I find that it is easy to forget to use up the leftovers before they go off. In the freezer you don’t have to rush to use them.

Tip: to make it easy to use up the leftovers a bit at a time, freeze the pancake batter in icecube trays. Then you can defrost it as needed. If the pancakes are already made, open freeze them. This means lay them out so that they aren’t touching anything other than a tray in the freezer. When they are frozen store them in an airtight container in the freezer. This prevents the pancakes from sticking together and being difficult to separate once frozen.

Vegan YouTubers that are budget friendly

Rachel Ama

Over half a million YouTube subscribers watch Rachel share her journey of living a vegan life, her vegan recipes and food reviews. I love her enthusiasm. She shares some amazing looking Carribean recipes. Rachel has a series of £1 easy vegan student meals. She also has another series where non vegans try vegan food, which is a great one to watch if you are a meatlover or if you know a meatlover. Seeing people try vegan food and not being able to tell the difference can make meatlovers curious about trying it. Sometimes she mixes a recipe in with some vegan beauty / exercise/ day in her life.
