CSR Business, Green, Meatless Monday, News | Angela | February 8, 2010 at 12:03 am

Happy Meatless Monday!  This recipe will certainly start the day off well.  In case you’re new to the blog, we have joined the Meatless Monday campaign which is a non-profit initiative in association with the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.  It’s part of a growing worldwide movement to reduce consumption of animal products in favour of more plant-based meals to fight global warming and improve our personal health.
This recipe is a great vegan turn on a classic morning staple courtesy of Post Punk Kitchen.  Serve topped with more peanut butter for added protein or sliced bananas for a classic combination.

Peanut Butter PancakesIngredients

  • 1 1/2 cups oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 large banana
  • 1 1/4 cups soy milk
  • 3 heaping Tablespoons peanut butter

Directions

  1. Put oats in blender and blend until a flour is formed. Pour into a big bowl and combine with baking powder.
  2. In a seperate bowl, mash the banana and mix with the soy milk and peanut butter.
  3. Combine wet and dry ingredients. Mix well and let the batter set 5 minutes.
  4. Prepare as you would any vegan pancake! Grease a skillet and pour the batter out, cooking on both sides for about 2 minutes or so. Serve with maple syrup, more peanut butter or chop up a banana and serve over it.

This is great for either breakfast, lunch or dinner – pancakes aren’t just for morning.  If you’d like to join the movement or read more, go to meatlessmonday.com.  If you happen to miss a Monday, another will be by soon enough – you can hop on then.  One day is a small price to pay.  Enjoy!
