  • 2 tsp spinach powder

How to Make Eggless Spinach Pancake

1. Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, whisk together the all purpose flour, spinach powder, and black sesame seeds until evenly combined with no clumps.

2. Add Water and Whisk Smooth

Gradually pour in the water, whisking as you go, until the batter is completely smooth — it should be pourable, with a texture similar to drinkable yogurt. Add a touch more water if it feels too thick.

3. Rest the Batter

Let the batter sit for 3-5 minutes. This gives the flour time to hydrate and helps the pancake cook more evenly.

4. Heat the Pan on Low

Warm a non-stick pan over low heat and lightly grease it. Test the heat with a drop of batter — it should sizzle gently, not spatter.

5. Pour and Pan-Fry

Pour the batter into the pan, swirling gently into an even round. Cook low and slow, about 2-4 minutes per side, until the surface puffs up and sets before flipping.

6. Prepare the Toppings

While the pancake cooks, dice the dragonfruit into small cubes.

7. Plate and Serve

Slide the pancake onto a plate, and scatter the diced dragonfruit around it. Serve warm.

Tips for the Best Eggless Spinach Pancake

  • Keep the heat low throughout — this batter is more delicate than a regular egg pancake, and low heat is what gives it that soft, puffed texture.
  • If the pancake is browning too fast before it sets, turn the heat down further
  • Can use milk instead of water for greater aroma and taste
