    Nog Banana Pancakes

    0 shares
    Eggnog screams Christmas, and it seem fitting to make these pancakes just a week before Christmas.

    On a recent visit to Whole Foods, I came across So Delicious’ Nog Coconut Milk.  I purchased this beverage based on Tina’s recommendation from Carrots n Cake. 
    Coming from someone who isn’t a big fan of traditional eggnog, So Delicious’ version is completely vegan, hence there is no egg in it.  It is creamy, delicious, and has a bold flavor of nutmeg.  I figured since I won’t be drinking an entire quart of “nog” all by myself, I might as well put it to good use and make pancakes, Nog Banana Pancakes to be exact.

    And since I was out of whole wheat pastry flour, can you believe it, I used all purpose white flour for a change.  The result – perfectly golden brown fluffy pancakes.  eggnog pancakes 053
    Hope you enjoy these pancakes this Christmas!  eggnog pancakes 062



    NUTRITION: Although coconut milk contains saturated fats, not all saturated fats pose as a health problem, especially those linked with coconut milk.  This version of “nog” contains no cholesterol.  Bananas are a very good source of Vitamin B6.  They are also a good source of Vitamin C and Fiber.
    * for a healthier alternative, use whole wheat pastry flour instead of all purpose white flour… I just didn’t have any on hand.



    INGREDIENTS (makes 5 to 6 pancakes ~ 3 servings):

    * Banana Coconut Smoothie      this stuff is so good, you can drink this as a smoothie.

    • So Delicious Nog Coconut Milk – 2 cups
    • Banana – 2
    • Ground Cinnamon – ½ teaspoon

    Pancake Batter

    • All Purpose White Flour – 1 ¼ cup  (for a healthier alternative, use whole wheat pastry flour)
    • Baking Powder – 2 teaspoon
    • Ground Cinnamon – ½ teaspoon
    • Salt – ¼ teaspoon
    • * Banana Coconut Smoothie – 2 cups
    • Egg – 1
    • Pure Vanilla – 1 tsp
    • Banana – 1 (small diced)
    • Unsalted Butter – tad for glazing; 1 teaspoon when serving




    DIRECTIONS:
    1. Using a magic bullet or blender, blend the ingredients of the Banana Coconut Smoothie.  Set aside.

    2. Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl… flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.  Set aside.
    3. Add the egg and vanilla along with 2 cups of the banana coconut smoothie - if you have leftovers, it's a great smoothie.  Mix well.
    4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet.  Mix until well combined.  DO NOT OVERMIX.
    5. Dice a banana.  Add the banana to the batter.  Combine.

    6. Heat a nonstick pan on medium heat, once hot, add a tad of butter. eggnog pancakes 100
    7. Using a ¼ cup measurement, drop a ¼ cup to ⅓ cup of pancake batter mixture onto the heated pan.  Cook for a couple minutes until golden brown on one side.eggnog pancakes 101
    8. Flip.

    9. Top with a little more butter and serve immediately.  These pancakes are extremely filling since they incorporate a lot of bananas and coconut milk.  Enjoy!eggnog pancakes 024

    TELL ME: Are you a fan of Eggnog?  If not, have you ever tried a “vegan” version?

      @Ameena - I'm not a huge fan of eggnog either, but you may like this, it's vegan (coconut milk), so none of that eggy taste. Good stuff. 🙂

      I've only ever tried eggnog in the form of Eggnog Lattes at Starbucks! I can't decide whether i am a fan...not sureif I like the eggy flavor in liquid form. As for eggy pancakes, that is definitely something I can get on board with :)!

      Wow, I have never seen that drink before. Is it healthy? 🙂 The pancakes look superb. I am going to make a batch of the your pumpkin ones again for Christmas. I am actually going to triple the batch and freeze some so that I can just have them right away on Christmas day!! Hope to do a post on them. Will let you know.

      @Khushboo - I think you'll really like them. The nog itself is vegan, but I added an egg.

      @eatgood4life - The drink has 3 grams of fat per half cup and 3g of saturated fat.. so not the healthiest, but not terrible I guess. Oh, I'm so glad you like the Pumpkin Pancakes, yes, let me know when you do a post. 🙂

      I'm not really a fan of eggnog but I like it in baked goods! So something like this is just perfect. Now if we actually had eggnog here and didn't have to make it homemade. 😉
