These vegan pancakes are a delightful treat that not only satisfies your taste buds but also caters to your dietary preferences. Made without any animal products, these pancakes are perfect for vegans or anyone seeking a plant-based option. The best part is that you can easily enhance the flavor by adding a variety of fruits directly into the batter. So, let's dive into the recipe and create a stack of delicious vegan pancakes!
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ¼ cups almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh fruits of your choice (optional)
Going Step by Step
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract.
- Gently stir the mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
- If desired, fold in your favorite fresh fruits into the batter. This adds a burst of flavor and texture to the pancakes.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with coconut oil or cooking spray.
- Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then carefully flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Repeat the process until all the batter is used, adjusting heat if necessary to prevent burning.
- Serve the vegan pancakes warm and topped with additional fruits, maple syrup, or your favorite vegan butter.
- Give it a try and enjoy!
Tips
- For fluffier pancakes, let the batter sit for 5 minutes before cooking.
- This allows the baking powder to activate fully.
- Experiment with different fruit combinations such as blueberries, sliced bananas, or diced strawberries to add a personalized touch.
- If you prefer a thinner batter, add a splash of almond milk.
- For a thicker consistency, add a little more flour.
- To keep the pancakes warm while cooking the entire batch, preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C) and place the cooked pancakes on a baking sheet inside the oven until ready to serve.
We are sure you are a perfect cook! Nonetheless, do remember to pay attention to the amount of Vegan Pancakes you consume: it should always be modified based on the strength of your product and the potency you desire. Dosing homemade edibles can be tricky, so it is strongly recommended to start with one portion of a serving. After one or two hours, listen to your body and decide whether to consume more. It is not recommended to drive or operate any machinery when taking edibles. Use responsibly!
