  • Author: Crystal
  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 8-10 pancakes 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

Fluffy, dairy-free pancakes made with almond milk—just as delicious as traditional pancakes but lighter and perfect for vegans or anyone avoiding dairy! Ready in 20 minutes.

 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 ¼ cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 large egg (or flax egg for vegan)
  • 2 tbsp melted butter (or coconut oil)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients – In a bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Combine wet ingredients – In another bowl, mix almond milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.
  3. Make batter – Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined (small lumps are okay).
  4. Cook pancakes – Heat a greased skillet over medium heat. Pour ¼ cup batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form (2-3 mins), flip, and cook another 1-2 mins.
  5. Serve warm – Top with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or nuts.

Notes

  • For vegan pancakes, use a flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed + 3 tbsp water) and coconut oil.
  • Don’t overmix – Lumpy batter = fluffier pancakes!
  • Adjust thickness – If batter is too thin, add 1-2 tbsp extra flour.
