Ingredients

  • 1 T. ground flaxseed

  • 3 T. very hot water

  • 1 C. flour

  • 3 T. baking powder

  • 2 tsp. vanilla

  • 2 tsp. veg oil (any but olive)

  • 1/3 C. sugar (or 3 packets Truvia)

  • 1 mashed banana (optional but fabulous)

  • pinch of salt

  • 1 C. almond milk

  • 1/4 C. “Silk Creamer” (optional, but sub more almond milk if not)

Directions

  • Mix together the first two ingredients in a small bowl and let it sit a minute, so they thicken.
  • Put the remaining ingredients in the blender.
  • Add blended flax/water mixture (the “flax-egg”)
  • Blend together, adding a bit more milk if needed
  • Pour onto medium-high heat non-stick pan. Flip when bubbles form and cook until golden brown.
  • Serve other favorites such as: Maple Syrup, Fruit Syrup, or Blended Frozen Blueberries.
  • Add dark chocolate chips with no added milk for a decadent treat!

Notes

  • This is the only vegan pancake recipe you will ever need. You can wiggle it, jiggle it, add bits and pieces, and it will turn out great.
  • Serve these to your favorite vegan, and I guarantee they will flip!

Easy Blender Pouring

A good non-stick pan is all you need to flip your plant-based pancakes!

Pancake Poem

When you want them without milk,

Add some almond, flax, and Silk,

Friends are vegan, some just try,

Get your syrup and pile them high!

Veg-a-licious!

Live to Love,

Renata

Let’s start cooking together!

Processing…
Success! You're on the list.
Lentils in pan with greens & garden herbs on top. When almost done, top with tomato, fresh herbs, olive oil, salt and pepper. Oh. My. @buonabeef you NAILED IT. The vegan meatless beef sandwich is so good, I can barely taste the difference in the real thing, and I grew up making these things. Wow. I am impressed! Which half is vegan, which beef? Will respond tomorrow..watching the Chicago White Sox tonight!!! #chicagofoodies Happy Birthday @brightlightvegan ! @nora_cooks_vegan_ You are such a QUEEN! This is the best chocolate cake, vegan or otherwise. I used cocoa from Costco (French?) and it’s divine. Baking @brightlightvegan her 25th bday cake. Well done on your glorious recipes! We talk about your creations a lot. Free Coffee Day at Dunkin! Okay y’all! Here are your closeups of $8/bottle wines (or under!) available at Binny’s with your (free) member card. You can call them up and order for pickup and never go in. It’s good to have this list because they do not order their wines by price, so I had to do a hunting job. These wines were sandwiched between $50-$300 bottles! Like I said, I am not a red wine connoisseur, but I do like medium bodied, gently fruity red wines that go down with easily, and have fewer tannins. I also like to stay on budget, but also have something lovely to experience. Bring on the holiday wines! Each of these reds was purchased for under $8/bottle when you have a Binny’s (free) reward card. They are all on the smooth, lighter, hint of dark berry, gently spicy side, with low tannins. This helps me drink as much as possible without getting acid reflux! If you want any details, leave a comment below so we can all share. I don’t know everything about wines, that is for SURE. But I do know how not to go broke! Hmmmm, what dish would I pair The Queen’s Gambit with? https://www.instagram.com/p/CHdFQ5fH_Hj/

Meet Renee Gough; writer, food enthusiast and mother of three kids. 26 years ago, Renee met a young Welsh man named Peter in a bar in Chicago and moved with him to England 2 months later. They have been married for over 25 years. Renee and Peter raised their three children, Sophie (23), Lucas (21) and Olivia (19) in England for over a decade. They moved back to Elmhurst, IL in 2005 to be closer to the family, old friends and the great city of Chicago. Renee’s wildly popular column, ‘Mediocre Mom’ struck a chord with parents everywhere when it was first published in 2009. The truth of the matter is that there are no mediocre moms; only moms who feel mediocre sometimes! Stumbling through motherhood can bring you to your knees, make you laugh, make you cry and scratch your head wondering how it all went wrong. It is usually at this moment when a cute, fat, pink baby enters the grocery store and you pine for that sweet baby smell again. Put your feet up, grab a cup of coffee and release the tension in your shoulders caused by teenage trauma, work stress and unexplained weight gain. Motherhood….nobody gets it right. But we will all die trying! ‘Renata’ is Renee’s Italian nickname given to her by her native Italian father. Growing up with an Italian immigrant father and a Polish/Italian-American mother ensured Renee was never far from a good meal. It also may have had something to do with Renee finding her own British immigrant husband who she has been married to for 23 years. Renee and her husband, Peter have three kids and live in Elmhurst, IL. It is here, inside Renata’s Kitchen, where Renee created ‘Renata’s Kitchen’. No matter what the conversation, somehow Renee steers the topic straight back to food. She opted to make a career out of this obsession and began writing weekly recipes, stories, and interviews in 2011. Food; it’s always good news! Renee also writes guest essays, feature stories, interviews, and news stories.
