Blueberry, Banana and Oat Breakfast Smoothie
| February 22, 2012 | Posted by Nada under Recipes |
Very rarely do I think up, make and blog a recipe all in the same day. But this, frankly, just could not wait. Of late, green smoothies have been my go-to post-run breakfasts. They’re quick, easy and provide me with the perfect pick me up I need to start off the rest of the day.… Read more
WIAW #15: Reader’s Digest Edition
| January 18, 2012 | Posted by Nada under WIAW |
This, unfortunately, will be the quickest of WIAW’s. The reasons for this being that a) I’ve spent the better part of today finishing off a mind numbingly assignment for my marketing class, so my brain is completely fried (financial spreadsheets were involved – need I say more?) and b) I am currently writing from campus… Read more
GF Apple Pie Pancakes and a Giveaway!
| December 8, 2011 | Posted by Nada under Recipes, Uncategorized |
What’s that – a giveaway? From me? Yes that’s right folks! Okay enough with the cheese. So a while ago, the lovely people over at Rice Dream sent me some of their rice milks to sample, and I did oblige. I’ve never been a fan of rice milk because it’s always either too water-y,… Read more

Buckwheat Strawberry Pancakes
| November 7, 2011 | Posted by Nada under Recipes |
Every time I hear the words “strawberry pancakes”, my friend Manal’s hauntingly beautiful rendition of this song plays in my head: (Any weebls fans out there?) Anyways, yesterday I promised to share the recipe for my latest brunch brainchild. These are light, wholesome and taste like strawberry fro-yo in pancake form. Top with bananas,… Read more
(Vegan, soy and gluten free)
Serves 1 hungry Nada (makes 5-6 pancakes, don’t judge me)
- 1/4 cup buckwheat flour
- 1/2 cup gluten free flour mix*
- 1-2 heaping tsp of baking powder
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries
- 1/2 a ripe banana, mashed
- 3/4 cup almond milk + more to thin
- 1 flax egg**
- 1t vanilla essence
- 1 t of melted vegan butter/margarine (optional)
*I used an all-purpose GF mix of rice, potato, tapioca, maize & buckwheat
**1T of flaxseed dissolved in 1 1/2T of warm water
- Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
- In a food processor or blender, combine the almond milk, banana, flax egg, vanilla essence, margarine and all the strawberries save for a small handful.
- Add the strawberry milk mixture to the dry ingredients to combine. When using GF flour you will tend to need more liquid so thin out using some more almond milk or water if the batter’s looking too thick. Chop up the remaining strawberries thinly and add to the batter.
- Lightly grease a pan using some coconut oil or cooking spray over a medium flame, then add the batter in 1/4 cup increments.
Top with bananas, a drizze of agave and some adorable tiny strawberries.
Served with a side of sunbutter.
Come on. You KNOW you want to make these.
