Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 ¼ cups (300 ml) plant-based milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Leavening and Seasoning:
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Liquid and Flavoring Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Toppings and Garnishes:
- Maple syrup
- Fresh fruit
- Peanut butter
- Almond butter
- Vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine the dry ingredients in a spacious mixing vessel, thoroughly whisking flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until uniformly blended.
- In a separate container, amalgamate plant-based milk, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar, and oil, ensuring thorough integration. Allow the mixture to rest for approximately five minutes, enabling the vinegar to interact and enhance the batter’s rising potential.
- Create a gentle well in the center of the dry ingredient mixture, then carefully pour the liquid components into this depression.
- Using a delicate folding technique, integrate the wet and dry ingredients. Stir with minimal agitation, stopping precisely when no significant flour streaks remain – overmixing will compromise the pancakes’ delicate texture.
- Heat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium temperature, lightly coating the surface with oil or plant-based butter to prevent adherence.
- Utilizing a measuring cup or ladle, carefully pour measured portions of batter onto the heated surface, allowing each pancake sufficient space for expansion.
- Watch for emerging bubbles across the pancake’s surface and slight drying of the edges – these indicate the optimal moment for flipping.
- Gently turn each pancake, cooking the reverse side until achieving a golden-brown complexion.
- Transfer the completed pancakes to a warming plate, maintaining heat while preparing subsequent batches.
- Serve immediately, garnishing with preferred toppings such as maple syrup, fresh berries, or plant-based whipped cream.
Notes
- Always sift dry ingredients to prevent lumps and ensure a smoother pancake batter.
- Use room temperature plant-based milk for better ingredient integration and more consistent texture.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to enhance the flavor profile and create a warm, comforting taste.
- For extra protein and nutrition, consider blending in mashed banana or a scoop of plant-based protein powder into the wet ingredients.
