Vegan Fluffy Pancakes (Printer-Friendly Version)

Tender, golden plant-based pancakes made easily with simple ingredients for a delicious breakfast treat.

# What You'll Need:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 - 2 teaspoons baking powder
04 - 1/4 teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

05 - 1 cup plant-based milk (almond, soy, oat, or coconut)
06 - 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
07 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
08 - 1 tablespoon coconut oil or vegetable oil, plus additional for cooking

# Steps to Follow:

01 - In a bowl, combine plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract, and sugar. Let rest for 1 minute to allow slight curdling.
02 - Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate large bowl until evenly dispersed.
03 - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined, leaving some lumps for a tender texture. Avoid overmixing.
04 - Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with oil.
05 - Using a 1/4 cup measure, pour batter onto skillet. Cook 2 to 3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown.
06 - Stack pancakes and top with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or vegan butter as desired.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Do not overmix the batter to maintain fluffiness.
02 - Let the batter rest 1 to 2 minutes before cooking to improve texture.
03 - Whole wheat flour may be used for a heartier flavor.
04 - Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while preparing remaining batches.
