Vlogmas Day 7 πŸŽ„ Vegan Grinch Pancakes for Life!

Starting Grateful

Lately I’ve been slowly working my way back into the good daily routines I used to have a few months back. It’s taking some time, but I’m definitely on the right track now. Getting up earlier, getting back into yoga, writing daily, dancing every morning and I have to say that this Saturday morning was almost a perfect one!

I got to bed before midnight yesterday (shocking, I know!), and because I didn’t have to set an alarm for today, I slept until 9 am and got myself a solid night of sleep before starting the day.

Got up and danced my way around in the living room to get the blood running. This is the song I morning danced to today:

Then I sat down in my tiny office and answered some YouTube comments, worked on a writing assignment and made som plans for next weeks posts.

After that I made some vegan pancakes, and coffee. Spoiled myself a little bit! It’s Saturday after all πŸ˜‰Β I posted the recipe for the vegan pancakes a while back. You can find it here 😊

And then I got back to a routine that I’ve really been missing lately; Gratitude journaling.

I used to do it every morning, but haven’t for what seems like forever. It’s such a wonderful way to start the day! It can change the whole outlook on a day, just starting it with gratitude! If you haven’t tried it before, then I highly recommend that you do so!

Now it’s time for some yoga! What are you up to this Saturday?

Wish you all a wonderful weekend!

Ingredients:

  • 6 dl (2 Β½Β cups) flour
  • 1 dl (Β½ cup) coarse ground rye flour
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla sugar
  • 6 dl (2Β Β½ cups) water
  • 2 tablespoons sunflower oil (or any neutral tasting oil)

Directions:

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
  2. Mix the water and oil in with your dry ingredients and mix until the batter is smooth.
  3. Let the batter rest for at least 5 minutes.
  4. Heat your skillet over medium heat Pour batter onto the skillet, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip with a spatula, and cook until browned on the other side.

 

And that’s it! Super fluffy and tasty American style, vegan pancakes!

I usually serve mine with sliced bananas or blueberries, maple syrup and walnuts. Sometimes I even like to treat myself to a PB&J pancake! If you’ve never tried, I recommend that you doπŸ˜‹
