ingredients

4 Servings
250 g all-purpose flour
400 ml unsweetened plant-based milk (e.g., soy, oat)
200 g fresh spinach
1 tsp baking powder
0.5 tsp salt
2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
2 tbsp nutritional yeast (optional)
2 tbsp vegetable oil (for batter)

Steps

1

Blend Spinach and Milk

Place the fresh spinach, plant-based milk, and minced garlic (if using) into a blender. Blend until smooth, ensuring the spinach is fully incorporated and you have a vibrant green liquid.

2

Combine Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and nutritional yeast (if using). Pour the spinach milk mixture and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined and smooth, avoiding overmixing. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes.

3

Cook Pancakes

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with a little vegetable oil. Pour about a ladleful of batter into the pan for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.

4

Serve

Serve the freshly cooked spinach vegan pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings.

Extra Tips

If you prefer a sweeter taste, add a pinch of sugar or sweetener to the batter.

Serve the pancakes with vegan sour cream, fresh herbs, or even a squeeze of lemon juice.

Leftover pancakes are delicious the next day when stored in the fridge, you can even enjoy them cold.
