Description

Delight in these fluffy vegan pancakes, a perfect breakfast treat crafted without eggs or dairy. Made with simple pantry staples like all-purpose flour, baking powder, and non-dairy milk, these pancakes come out light and tender with a hint of vanilla. Easy to prepare and quick to cook on the stovetop, they offer a satisfying vegan-friendly alternative to classic pancakes with crispy edges and a soft, airy center.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

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

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain, unsweetened non-dairy milk
  • 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 evenly combined.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the non-dairy milk, melted vegan butter, and vanilla extract. Stir gently until just incorporated, making sure not to overmix; it’s okay to have some lumps remaining in the batter for fluffier pancakes.
  3. Preheat Pan: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Optional: Add a teaspoon or two of vegan butter to the pan if you desire crispy edges on your pancakes.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set, about 3 to 4 minutes, then carefully flip.
  5. Finish Cooking: Cook the flipped side until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.

Notes

  • Ensure you use baking powder and not baking soda to help the pancakes rise properly.
  • Do not overmix the batter; lumps make for fluffier pancakes.
  • Use unsweetened non-dairy milk to control sweetness and calories.
  • You can substitute melted vegan butter with vegetable oil if desired.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter.
