Description

Fluffy Vegan Pancakes made with simple ingredients including all-purpose flour, baking powder, and non-dairy milk, perfect for a delicious and plant-based breakfast option. These pancakes are light, airy, and naturally dairy-free and egg-free, featuring hints of vanilla and a slight crisp from vegan butter.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup non-dairy milk, plain and unsweetened
  • 2 tablespoons melted vegan butter
  • 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, stir together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until combined.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the non-dairy milk, melted vegan butter, and vanilla extract into the dry mixture. Stir gently until just incorporated. It’s important not to overmix; some lumps of flour should remain in the batter to keep pancakes fluffy.
  3. Preheat Pan: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. For crispier edges, add a teaspoon or two of vegan butter to the pan and let it melt evenly.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until bubbles form on the top and the bottom turns golden brown.
  5. Flip and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip each pancake using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until it is golden brown and cooked through.

Notes

  • Ensure you use baking powder, NOT baking soda, to achieve the proper rising and fluffiness.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes light and tender.
  • Use a non-stick pan and vegan butter to prevent sticking and enhance flavor.
  • Non-dairy milk should be plain and unsweetened to control sweetness in the pancakes.
