Method

Whisk together all batter ingredients. Start with 160ml of almond or cashew milk and add more to create a thick but pourable batter.
Heat a non-stick pan over a medium heat. Lightly grease with spray oil.
Cook ¼ cup (60ml) measures of the batter to make 5 -6 pancakes. Allow to cook for 2 -3 minutes, flip and cook for 1 -2 minutes more.
For the sauce, whisk together all ingredients in a small pot, bring the boil and simmer for 2 – 3 minutes. Add a little HOT water if it gets too thick.
Store leftovers of sauce in the fridge for up to two days, reheat as needed in a pot or in short 20 second burst in the microwave.
