Pancakes: Vegan style! with home made raspberry jam

A friend asked me recently if I would be adding some african recipes….. I said I would but I don’t really know a lot of african meals but I would try my best…….

well before we get there, I recently discovered a recipe for pancakes with soy milk and also without eggs and I believe this would be perfect for my vegetarian friends (you know yourselves!!!)

I have made this recipe before and it turned out great (well I made mine with cow milk and not soy milk…..not really a fan of it!) but when you try this, tell me all about it please

 Pancake Ingredients:

• all purpose flour (universalis buzafinomliszt/ buzafinomliszt)             2 cups/250 g
• sugar (cukor)   1/2 cup/ 68g (or if you have a sweet tooth you can add more)
• baking powder (sutopor) 1 tsps
• 1 tsp vanilla extract or powder
• soy milk (szójatej) 2 cups/470ml (I prefer cow milk but then again I’m not a vegetarian!) 
• sunflower oil/ vegetable oil

Jam Ingredients:

• 300g fresh/frozen raspberries
• 100g sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Kitchen Utensils:

• Pancake pan/Flat frying pan/ Pancake hot plate
• Bowl
• Turner or Spatula 
• Measuring cup
• Ladle or Soup spoon

Method:

Pancake

• Mix the flour, baking powder and sugar in the bowl
• Add the milk
• Add 1 tbsp of oil
• mix it until you get a batter that is fairly smooth (its perfect if it has a few lumps in it……weird… I know!!!)
• The consistency should be similar to Tesco ketchup(which is quite runny!!) basically you should be able to pour it…. if its too light, the pancake would be too thin.
• at this point is where you can go crazy with the pancake by stirring in anything you fancy……… berries, almond extract( replace the vanilla with this), I have even heard of putting onions …… but please…. No “harsh pancakes”
• heat your pan  till its mildly hot and put 1tsp of oil and spread it
• use the ladle to pour the batter into the pan….. the quantity you pour in is up to you but for a small sized pancake half a oup spoon would suffice
• when the top of the pancake starts to bubble, flip it with the turner or spatula and cook the other side for about 1 min or less
• repeat until you finish the batter.

Jam

• heat up the non-stick pot
• pour in the sugar and the raspberries
• stir for 2 mins then every other minute
• take it off the burner after 8-10 mins and leave it to cool

Serving options

asides from the jam you just made, you could opt for syrup or fruits on the side or enjoy it plain!!!!!!!
