These vegan pancakes are the easiest and fluffiest you’ll ever make, perfect for a quick and delicious breakfast or brunch. Made with simple ingredients and no dairy or eggs, they deliver light, soft pancakes with a subtle sweetness that pairs perfectly with maple syrup or fresh fruit.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon unrefined coconut sugar (optional)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened cashew milk (or dairy-free milk of choice)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and coconut sugar until evenly combined to ensure your pancakes rise properly and have a slight sweetness.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Pour in the unsweetened cashew milk and vanilla extract, then gently mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the batter light and fluffy.
  3. Preheat the griddle: Heat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat until hot, which will help achieve a golden crust on the pancakes.
  4. Cook the pancakes: Ladle the batter onto the griddle to form 4-inch diameter pancakes. Cook for about 3-5 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook the other side for another 3-5 minutes until cooked through and golden brown.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Serve your fluffy vegan pancakes warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings for a delightful breakfast.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy and tender.
  • If you prefer sweeter pancakes, increase the coconut sugar or add a sweetener of choice.
  • Use a non-stick griddle or well-seasoned skillet to prevent sticking without excessive oil.
  • You can substitute cashew milk with any other dairy-free milk such as almond, oat, or soy milk.
  • For gluten-free options, substitute the flour with a gluten-free all-purpose blend using xanthan gum.
