Instructions
Combine and sift flours, salt and baking powder into a large bowl and make a well in the centre.
Whisk together the milk, ground flax seed and 2 tbsp maple syrup in a jug.
Gradually add the milk mixture to the flour mixture, whisking constantly until smooth. Set aside for 15 minutes to rest.
Brush a non-stick skillet or griddle or frying pan with oil to lightly grease and heat over medium heat.
Pour about ¼ cup portions of batter into the pan, allowing room for spreading. Cook for 2 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface and pancakes are golden underneath. Carefully turn with a spatula and cook for a further 2 minutes or until golden.
Transfer to a plate and cover with a clean tea towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding additional oil to the griddle between batches if necessary.
Divide pancakes among plates, stack alternate layers of pancake and chopped banana.
Drizzle maple syrup over the top and serve garnished with strawberry and kiwi fruit.
