Ingredients

• 1 ripe banana, mashed
• 1 egg
• 1 flaxseed egg (1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons of water, let sit for 5 minutes until thickened)
• 1/2 cup oat milk
• 1 cup oat flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 cup shredded beets
• Handful of coconut flakes

Here are some substitutes for the ingredients for these beet oat pancakes:

1. Banana – If you don’t have a ripe banana on hand, you can try using unsweetened applesauce or mashed sweet potato instead. These alternatives will provide a similar sweetness and moisture to the batter.
2. Flaxseed egg – If you don’t have flaxseed or prefer not to use it, you can substitute with a chia seed egg (1 tablespoon of chia seeds mixed with 3 tablespoons of water, let sit for 5 minutes until thickened), or you can simply use another regular egg instead.
3. Oat milk – Any non-dairy milk, such as almond milk, soy milk, or coconut milk, can be used in place of oat milk. If you don’t have any non-dairy milk, you can use regular milk instead.
4. Oat flour – If you don’t have oat flour, you can make your own by grinding rolled oats in a food processor or blender until they form a fine powder. You can also substitute with whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, or gluten-free flour.
5. Shredded beets – If you don’t have beets, you can try using shredded carrots, zucchini, or sweet potato instead. These vegetables will add a similar texture and sweetness to the pancakes.
