• 1½ cup soy milk
• 2 tbsp flour
• 2 tbsp oats
• 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon

Just mix all that together and soak some bread in it. Put the bread on an oiled frying pan until nice and golden. As for topping, I suggest margarine, maple syrup and freshly picked blackberries. They’re a lot cheaper than you’ll find in the store and as fresh as they’ll ever get.

I think I’ve made this recipe at least a hundred times and it’s worked out on every occasion. It’s suitable for both pancakes and waffles, can easily be modified with buckwheat flour or walnuts, and takes only a minute to prepare.
