Cornmeal pancakes with apple relish

These vegan cornmeal pancakes with apple relish are deliciously sweet and are gluten-free and sugar-free with only 4 ingredients.

Hi my dear friend, how has it been going on your side, are you getting to manage your pain? I hope you are.

Just tell me, you do love sweet corn, don't you? (By corn, I mean maize as well).

And have you ever tried cornmeal pancakes?

For me, it's new, I have eaten maize (corn) for years but never thought of making vegan cornmeal pancakes until recently.

You know what, we love pancakes in this house, like these delicious red lentils pancakes, buckwheat groats pancakes are perfect and these chickpea with apples are mind-blowing.

And guess what my friend, these cornmeal pancakes are the best gluten-free and vegan pancakes that I've ever made.

My son said that these vegan cornmeal pancakes with apple relish are so delicious that he can't trade them with white flour pancakes! Count that as an honorable complement.

In this cornmeal pancake recipe I use sweet cornmeal, which is sweeter compared to white maize flour.

Do you know what else you'll love about these cornmeal pancakes beside them being so delicious? The fact that you'll just blend everything in your blender, so easy, so simple. 

In this pancake recipe, I tried two different kinds of milk. 

You go for coconut heavy cream and heaven will be all yours lol.

The other choice is soy milk, squeeze a lemon in it to make buttermilk. 

The photos of these cornmeal pancakes are made with soy milk and they are as sweet. However, I added some coconut oil to add some healthy fats as well as to give the pancakes some moisture.

"What will I get from these cornmeal pancakes?"

Let's see, you'll have proteins, dietary fiber, healthy fats, healthy carbs, some minerals like iron, manganese, zinc, magnesium, etc just from oats.

Corn (only go for organic) is high in potassium, zinc, phosphorus, selenium, vitamin B group, vitamin E as well as beta carotene in yellow corn.

You'll get a good amount of boron, copper, potassium, iron, and vitamin K from raisins.

Either milk will give you some proteins.

Apples will give you vitamin C together with fiber, but more so, they're rich in phytonutrients making them a powerhouse of antioxidants that will help your body fight off diseases.

Remember though, that these nutrients are highly concentrated on the skin.
