This Vegan Avocado Pancake Recipe is the Perfect Brunch Meal
After eating an arguably obsessive amount of avocado toast, I decided that it was time for a change. The luscious and creamy taste of an avocado spread over a perfectly toasted piece of bread creates an amazing savory treat; however, I'm not always in the mood for a savory breakfast. In an effort to satisfy my incessant consumption of avocados, I decided to create this vegan avocado pancake recipe to meet any avocado fanatic's needs. Topped with a delicious strawberry compote, these pancakes can make any morning great!
This recipe makes about 5 to 6 pancakes and can be adjusted to suit anyone's preference. For fluffier pancakes, omit 1/4 cup of milk as written on the recipe; similarly, for thinner pancakes, add an extra 1/4 cup of milk. If desired, add one teaspoon of matcha powder or a few drops of green food coloring to enhance the color.
