Quinoa Pancakes with Caramelised Banana

Makes 8

INGREDIENTS
  • 110g (¾ cup) quinoa flour
  • 115g (2/3 cup) potato starch
  • 1 ½ tsp gluten free baking powder
  • 2 Tbsp caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 150ml milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • Melted butter, to grease
  • Thick Greek yoghurt, to serve

Caramelised bananas

  • 55g (¼ cup) firmly packed brown sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large bananas, thickly sliced
 METHOD
  1. Sift quinoa flour, potato starch and baking powder into a large bowl. Stir through the sugar. Make a well in the centre and add the eggs, milk and vanilla essence and whisk until smooth (batter will be quite thin).
  2. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and brush pan with a little butter. For each pancake, ladle about ¼ cup of batter into the pan and cook for about 2 minutes, until bubbles appear on the surface. Turn the pancake over and cook for another minute or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and keep warm while cooking the rest of the pancakes.
  3. Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the sugar, vanilla and 2 Tbs water. Cook stirring, to dissolve the sugar. Add banana slices, cook for 1-2 minutes, tossing to coat in the caramel sauce.
  4. Serve pancakes topped with a dollop of yoghurt and the caramelised bananas.
