It’s possible to make delicious vegan pancakes\u2014and it’s easier than you’d think. This vegan pancake recipe comes together in about 10 minutes and is easily adaptable to fit all tastes. You can make them thick and fluffy or thin. Serve them with fruit or your favorite pancake toppings<\/a>. The recipe is dairy- and egg-free, and super versatile, too. This list of ingredient substitutions for pancakes<\/a> makes customizing your stack easier than ever.<\/p>\n This recipe calls into action two great tricks for making soft, light, fluffy vegan pancakes. First, dairy-free milk is combined with apple cider vinegar to make a “buttermilk” mixture. Second, ground flaxseed is used as a binder instead of eggs.<\/p>\n Ready to dig in? Grab your mixing bowls, and let’s get cooking. You’ll have delicious, plant-based pancakes on your plate in no time.<\/p>\n In a medium bowl, whisk together the dairy-free milk, oil, ground flaxseed, apple cider vinegar and vanilla extract.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> If you want ultra-fluffy pancakes, reduce the amount of dairy-free milk by about 1 tablespoon. If you prefer pancakes on the thinner side, add a tablespoon or two more.<\/p>\n In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.<\/p>\n Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, and stir until just<\/em> combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter! Let the batter rest for five minutes.<\/p>\n Heat your griddle or skillet over medium heat, and lightly grease. Ladle pancake batter by 1\/4 cupfuls onto the warmed griddle. Cook until bubbles start to form and break on the top of each pancake and the bottoms are golden brown.<\/p>\n Flip the pancakes. Cook until the second side is golden brown. Serve with desired toppings.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em>\u00a0Here are the vegan butter brands<\/a> we can’t resist!<\/p>\n Pancakes make some of the best leftovers! Store cooked vegan pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days. To rewarm, wrap pancakes loosely in a paper towel, and reheat in the microwave until warmed throughout.<\/p>\n To freeze cooked pancakes, let them cool completely. Stack the pancakes in a large freezer-safe resealable bag. They’ll be good in the freezer for up to two months. Let thaw in the refrigerator, then reheat as desired.<\/p>\n There are several baking powder substitutions<\/a> for vegan pancakes\u2014plus other baking projects\u2014like lemon juice, cream of tartar and even club soda.<\/p>\n Serve vegan pancakes with your favorite toppings, like fresh fruit, homemade jam<\/a>, chopped nuts, powdered sugar or blueberry syrup<\/a>. To complete this wholesome and filling vegan breakfast, serve a short stack alongside smoky vegan bacon<\/a> and other delicious vegan breakfast recipes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Learn how to make vegan pancakes that everyone will enjoy!
