Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ cups flour, all purpose or gluten free
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1 ½ cups dairy free milk
  • 1 tbsp olive oil, or avocado oil
  • coconut oil or vegan butter, for the pan

Instructions 

  • First, add sugar, flour, baking powder and sea salt to a mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.
  • Then, add in milk and oil. Stir to combine. The batter will be thick.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add in coconut oil to grease the pan.
  • Once oil has melted, add about ¼ cup of batter to the skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until small bubbles form.
  • Then, carefully flip. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes on the second side.
  • Finally, remove pancakes from pan. Top with vegan butter and maple syrup!

Notes

  • Both regular all purpose flour and gluten free 1 to 1 flour work well.  The pancakes in these photos are gluten free.
  • Any type of dairy free milk works.
  • The pancake batter will be pretty thick.  This yields thick fluffy pancakes.
  • For thinner pancakes, add more milk or water to the batter to thin it out.
  • Use enough coconut oil or vegan butter in the skillet.  This prevents sticking.
  • These pancakes are best eaten immediately.  For leftovers, store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, add pancakes to a skillet over low heat until warm.  Or, toast in the toaster.
