Pancakes! Some have them for breakfast, some for afternoon coffee break, he he. They actually make a nice lunch box treat too.
Usually I like to throw some mashed banana into my pancakes. These pancakes however are without bananas. This was a request by one of my lovely readers. Since I know what it’s like when you have to avoid certain foods, I was more than happy to try a banana-free version.
For sweetening I have used dried apricots. This will also work well with other dried fruits, like dates or even figs. Please be aware that these pancakes are not overly sweet. I served them with a creamy vanilla sauce and it was perfect!
And while I have used raspberries, you can also use strawberries, blueberries or blackberries. As always, this recipe is vegan, gluten-free and once again oil-free 🙂
