Notes on ingredients

You can find a complete list of ingredients with exact amounts and instructions in the recipe card below.
  • White rice flour: White rice flour is naturally gluten free, rich in carbohydrates and low in fat. It is used as an alternative to wheat flour in gluten-free baked goods.
  • Oat flour: Oat flour is a nutritious, unrefined flour that lends great texture to baked goods.
  • Almond flour: Almond flour is made from blanched (peeled) almonds and it is not the same as almond meal. Compared to almond meal, almond flour has a finer texture and lighter color. It adds texture and a subtle nutty flavor. 
  • Agave nectar: Maple syrup is a great nutritious and natural sweetener that you can use as a substitute for agave nectar.
  • Rice milk: Substitute it with soy, oat or almond milk. 
  • Coconut oil: Coconut oil makes a wonderful substitute for butter and other oils.
  • Banana: You’ll need 1 medium-sized ripe banana (approx. 100 g). It’s important to mash banana well before adding it to the batter. You can use a fork to mash it.
  • Ground flaxseeds: You’ll need to ground flaxseeds for this recipe.
  • Blueberries: Fresh blueberries are best.

Hi this recipe looks great but is there a way to make it oilfree?!

Hi! I haven’t tried the oil-free version myself, probably the texture would be slightly different. Try adding a few tablespoons of light canned coconut milk instead.
