Quick and Easy Vegan Pancakes

Who doesn’t love a stack of fluffy, delicious pancakes for breakfast? And when you make them vegan and homemade, they’re even better! First of all, homemade vegan pancakes are incredibly customizable. You can add in your favorite fruits, nuts, or dairy-free chocolate chips to make them even tastier. Plus, you know exactly what ingredients are going into them, so you can make them as healthy or indulgent as you want. I always like to top them with fresh berries and all the maple syrup!

These vegan pancakes really are the best. They’re so soft and fluffy! And since they’re homemade, you don’t have to worry about any weird additives or preservatives. So, the next time you’re craving vegan pancakes, skip that expensive boxed mix and whip up a batch at home!

Ingredients Needed

I love that these vegan pancakes use such simple ingredients. It makes them a breeze to whip up in the morning! Exact measurements can all be found in the recipe card below.

• Flour: I just used regular all-purpose flour, but you could also use whole wheat flour if you wanted an extra boost of fiber.
• Baking Powder: Makes the pancakes light and fluffy!
• Salt: Keeps the vegan pancakes from tasting bland. You only need a little bit.
• Granulated Sugar: Adds sweetness to the pancake batter.
• Non-Dairy Milk: Adjusts the consistency of the batter and also adds creaminess. Feel free to use oat milk, almond milk, soy milk, whatever you prefer! You can also use water but it will change the texture of your pancakes a bit.
• Vanilla Extract: Adds sweetness to the pancakes.
• Canola Oil: Adds moisture to the batter and helps the pancakes cook properly.

How to Make the Best Vegan Pancakes

These delicious vegan pancakes cook up perfectly! Just be sure to pay attention to the bubbles that form at the surface so you know when to flip them.

1. Dry Ingredients: To a large bowl, add the flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar. Then whisk to combine. 
2. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the non-dairy milk, vanilla, and oil to the bowl of dry ingredients. Then whisk together until smooth and blended.
3. Let Sit: Allow the batter to sit for a couple of minutes while you heat the skillet. It allows the batter to thicken a little.
4. Preheat Skillet: Preheat a large skillet to medium-high heat. You can also heat a griddle according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Use Cooking Spray: Lightly spray the skillet or griddle with non-stick cooking spray.
6. Add Batter to Skillet: Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the griddle or skillet and cook until bubbles begin to appear on the surface. Then carefully flip and cook the opposite side until golden brown. Adjust and lower the heat if pancakes begin to burn.
7. Enjoy: Serve with fresh berries and pure maple syrup!
