Original recipe of the week: Savoury Spicy Banana Pancakes with Chive and Garlic

We know it isn’t pancake day yet but let’s face it, who can resist a pancake? Delicious pancakes are popular in all cultures from Asian cuisine to British and European, whether savoury or sweet they just taste so good. We’ve developed a super healthy recipe that tastes just as yummy as it sounds. These savoury pancakes are great paired with fish or veg, or alternatively eat them on their own or use them as wraps. Flour-free means that these pancakes are quick and simple to make (and also gluten-free!).
