Description

These Fluffy Vegan Pancakes are light, tender, and easy to make using simple plant-based ingredients. Perfect for a wholesome breakfast or brunch, they deliver all the classic pancake goodness without any dairy or eggs.


Ingredients

Scale

Pancake Batter

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup non-dairy milk (plain, unsweetened)
  • 2 tablespoon melted vegan butter
  • 1.5 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, stir together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined to ensure even leavening.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the non-dairy milk, melted vegan butter, and vanilla extract until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should remain slightly lumpy for fluffy pancakes.
  3. Preheat Pan: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. For extra crispy edges, add a teaspoon or two of vegan butter to the pan and let it melt.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the underside is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Flip and Finish: Flip the pancakes gently and cook the other side until golden brown, approximately 1-2 minutes more.
  6. Serve: Remove from the pan and serve warm with your choice of toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, or additional vegan butter.

Notes

  • Make sure to use baking powder, not baking soda, for proper rise and fluffy texture.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter to keep pancakes tender and light.
  • Use a non-stick pan or well-seasoned skillet to prevent sticking.
  • Cooking over medium heat ensures the pancakes cook through without burning.
  • Optional: Adding a bit of vegan butter in the pan creates crispy edges and enhances flavor.
