Notes
STORING LEFTOVERS: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 10 days or freeze for up to 4 months.
Allergies: For an egg-free version: Swap eggs for 1-2 ripe bananas (200g peeled).
Easy ingredient swaps: Swap black beans for adzuki beans or kidney beans.
Additional boosters: Add 1 tsp of chia seeds to the batter. Sprinkle unbaked batter with crushed seeds or nuts.
For fussy eaters: Make sure the beans are processed very smoothly.
