Vegan Pancakes with Blueberry Compote



Sunday mornings for Vanessa and I were always a treasure trove of pancakes, eggs and bacon; lots and lots of bacon!  But since going veg last month we have been searching for new options for our Sunday morning breakfasts and this past week was no different.  So we made these beautiful vegan pancakes with blueberry compote...delicious!  No eggs, no butter.  Instead of butter we used some organic smart balance(100% vegan) and in place of an egg we used half a banana.  To tell you the truth I think I might like these pancakes better than the old ones with egg and butter.  To make it even healthier use whole wheat flour and leave out the vegetable oil, but these are pretty sweet as is! 

These pancakes were delicious and healthy, a real treat!

1 & 1/4 cup flour
1/2 banana (as egg replacer)
1 cup almond milk
2 TBSP vegetable oil (optional)
2 TBSP baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Combine wet ingredients and the add dry with whisk being careful not to over mix.  If you leave out oil add some water if the batter is too thick.

Blueberry Compote

1 small tray of blueberries rinsed
1 TBSP sugar
Water

Put blueberries and sugar in small saucepan and cover with water.  Boil stirring occasionally and then lower heat until thick.
