When it came to making pancakes, my go-to recipe was the one on the back of the box of pancake mix. Those mixes are usually made with flour that has been bleached, which you really don't need in your pancakes.
Now I make mine from scratch by mixing some whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt in one bowl. In a separate bowl, combine unflavored soy milk or any other plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract and maple syrup.
Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk together until combined. Don't over mix the batter or else the pancakes won't be fluffy. It's okay if there are some lumps of flour in the batter. Let the batter sit for a few minutes to activate the baking powder so that the pancakes will rise when you cook them.
Heat a pan or griddle. Once it's hot add some vegan butter or refined coconut oil and swirl it around the pan to make sure it's covered. Pour some of the batter onto the pan. You can make these pancakes as big or as small as you want.
Cook for about three minutes or when the edges of the pancakes look dry and bubbles start to appear and pop on the top surface. Then flip them over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes or until lightly brown and cooked in the middle.
Serve with maple syrup and your favorite fruit. If you like this video then go ahead and click on that like button and also subscribe to my channel for more videos like this one.
