I have one last breakfast recipe for you!! I promise we will move on to sweets and desserts next week but I had to share with you these dairy-free whole wheat banana walnut pancakes first.

Have you heard about the new Dairy-Free Yogurt Alternative from Silk? I tried it recently and I am in love!! With 6 grams of soy protein per serving, each spoonful is smooth, creamy and just delicious! And plus it’s dairy-free. I used this new yogurt alternative to make these dairy-free pancakes.

Pancakes are our favorite way to start Saturdays around here. Mr J. and I don’t get to spend many mornings together due to opposite work schedules. So whenever we can make a weekend breakfast together, we make sure it’s epic!! Like these whole wheat banana walnut pancakes I made us last weekend. They are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, almond milk, banana puree and Silk’s new dairy-free yogurt alternative for protein.

Topped with fresh bananas, these pancakes are soft, hearty, filling and bursting with flavor. The slight crunch from the walnuts is just a great addition!

With several real fruit flavors and inspiration, you can use Silk’s dairy free yogurt alternative to add some flavor into your mornings. To find out more about this new product, visit Silk’s website and join the Silk Community.

Dairy-free whole wheat banana walnut pancakes are filling, delicious and just what every morning needs.

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 3 minutes

Total Time 18 minutes

Ingredients

• ¾ cup whole wheat flour
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ½ cup banana puree (about one and a half bananas)

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, and nutmeg.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the banana puree, almond milk, yogurt, and coconut oil.
3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and whisk until no streaks of flour remain. Do not over-mix. Batter might be thick but I like it this way. If you don't, feel free to add ¼ cup almond milk. Fold in the chopped walnuts into the batter.
4. Heat your griddle or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spray slightly with cooking spray. Pour about ⅓ cup into the hot skillet. Cook until bottom is golden brown then flip pancake and cook other side until brown. Serve with maple syrup, sliced bananas and walnuts.

Meghan, from Spoonful of Flour, is an incredible baker who has the loveliest desserts. She and I bonded over our mutual love for cupcakes two years ago online. I mean just look at her cupcakes archives? But it was not until I met her in person over the summer that I knew we were kindred spirits indeed. We are dessert twins and she makes me want to move to Boston. She loves decadent, simple and everyday desserts like these brown butter walnut brownies she brought for you today!

Hello Blahnik Baker readers! I’m Meghan from Spoonful of Flour and I am so excited to fill in for Zainab as she gets back in the swing of things after a weekend away from the kitchen. This past June I got to meet Zainab while she was in Boston for a conference. We hit it off right away as I took her around the city and visited some of my favorite bakeries. Zainab and I have so much in common and I had so much fun chatting and eating cannoli after cannoli with her! If only I could convince her to come to Boston more often.

Just in case you need another brownie recipe in your life, I am sharing these brown butter walnut brownies with you today. It has actually been several years since I made these brownies for the first time. I recently came across the recipe again while I was flipping through one of the 500 magazines I currently have in my apartment. And then I remembered just how good they were and decided I needed to bake them again and share with others. The brownies themselves are studded with chopped walnuts and their flavor is further enhanced by the addition of brown butter. They have a chewy interior and a fudgy exterior. In other words, I love them!

Thank you so much for having me here today Zainab!
