Pancakes Savory Style

Savory Style Pancakes are a great dinner option. They are my favorite type of meal; a blank canvas that can be customized to fit the taste you are craving and the supplies you have on hand!

The base for the savory pancake is simple to make. The only make ahead ingredient you need is some cooked quinoa.

Ingredients:

1 cup garbanzo bean flour (I used Bob's Red Mill)
1 TBSP nutritional yeast
1 tsp paprika
2 cloves of garlic (minced)
1 TBSP olive oil
1/3 cup cooked quinoa
1 to 1 1/2 cups water (depending on the thickness you wish the pancake to have)
salt and pepper to taste

OPTIONS: add in crushed red pepper, basil, rosemary, or herbs/spices you choose

Instructions:

Combine all of the ingredients and let rest for 15-30 minutes
Heat a pan with some olive oil and make pancakes the size you desire

 

 

Serving Suggestions:

Roasted vegetables
Hummus
Refried beans
Beans/lentils
Pesto 

Italian Variation

• Substitute Italian Seasoning for Paprika
• 2 TBSP nutritional Yeast rather than 1TBSP
• Top with pesto ... OR ALSO add 2 TBSP pesto to the batter
