Moringa Oat Pancakes (no added sugar)
Here is a healthy and easy pancake recipe for when you are craving something sweet! I made these because I quit eating sugar and bread and really wanted something with that texture. Ever since I threw these together, I have made them for myself once a week! They are perfect if you are trying to be healthy and even better if you want your kids to eat a little more healthy. These pancakes are gluten free and sugar free! They are a guiltless pleasure!

I made this recipe by throwing a bunch of ingredients together one day when I was craving something sweet! So, there is a lot of room to make substitutions to fit your preferences!
If You Want The Pancakes To Have Less Banana
Go ahead! I use two bananas because I eat the pancakes alone. The bananas make them sweet and gives the pancakes a lot of flavor. However, if you want them less sweet or are minimizing your sugar intake, you can use just 1 banana.
If You Want These To Be Vegan
I offer you some Egg substitutions.
-
-
- 2 1/2 teaspoons ground flax seed + 3 tablespoons of water. Mix these together and let sit until you have a thick consistency.
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce per egg
- 1 tablespoon vinegar+ 1 teaspoon baking powder whisked together per egg
-
I have not made the pancakes with these substitutions, so it will be trial and error. I do suggest that you try the flax egg first because adding more baking soda to the recipe may make it taste a little different. I have added too much before and they had a weird after flavor!
When It’s Time To Eat And You Don’t Want Sugar
Try paring the pancakes with sugar free syrup, almond butter, peanut butter, or any other nut butter! It has always been my favorite to eat warm pancakes or waffles with peanut butter!
I hope you enjoy this recipe! It is easy to make and a crowd favorite!
