Ingredients You’ll Need
You only need four simple ingredients to make the perfect vegan pancake.
- Flour: I prefer whole wheat pastry flour but you could also use organic unbleached all-purpose flour, regular whole wheat flour, or your favorite gluten-free flour mix.
- Baking Powder: you only need a tiny bit of baking powder for this vegan pancake recipe. These pancakes are not thick and fluffy and resemble a crêpe.
- Dry Sweetener: brown sugar, organic cane sugar, maple sugar, or date sugar. You may also omit this ingredient if you wish.
- Non-Dairy Milk: I love using unsweetened vanilla almond milk in this recipe. It adds a depth of flavor without the need for pure vanilla extract. But you may use any type of dairy-free milk that you wish: oat milk, soy milk, rice milk, etc.
How To Make Easy Vegan Pancakes
These easy vegan pancakes could not be easier to make. You simply stir, pour, flip, and serve.
- Place the dry ingredients into a bowl, followed by the milk, and whisk or stir all of the ingredients until the batter is smooth.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Pour the desired amount of batter (I usually do ⅓ cup) into the skillet, When the bubbles appear on the surface and begin to break (about 30-45 seconds), flip the pancake and cook the other side for about 20-30 seconds.
- Repeat until you have used all of the pancake batter.
- Drizzle with warm maple syrup and enjoy!
Serving Suggestions
Pancakes are perfect because they’re like a blank canvas. You can enjoy them plain or you choose from an almost endless array of toppings. Here are a few of my favorites.
- Fresh Berries such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries are excellent.
- Sliced bananas, chopped apples, and sliced pears.
If you really want to see your children’s faces light up spread a thin layer of nut butter between each pancake and then top with vegan chocolate chips. Amazing!

How To Store
Place in a covered container and place in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave or toaster oven.
These pancakes freeze very well. To freeze, stack them in a large ziplock plastic bag, seal, and freeze. Pop them in a toaster oven or microwave to reheat.
Notes and Tips
- Most pancake recipes will tell you to leave some lumps or the pancakes will become too dense. These pancakes are not light and fluffy, they are thin and resemble more of a crepe. So, you want the batter to be very smooth and free of almost any lumps.
- If you prefer a thicker pancake use less almond milk.
- The amount of batter you used for each pancake will determine how many pancakes you can get per batch. Using ⅓ of a cup of batter usually yields about three pancakes and ¼ of a cup of batter yields about 5 to 6 pancakes.
- For pancakes at any time of the day or night be sure and keep some of my pancake mix and ingredients to make vegan buttermilk on hand. You never know when the urge might strike
