Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar (natural)
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup Plant-Based Milk
- 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar (natural)
- 2 tablespoons Melted Vegetarian Butter (plant-based)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (natural)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl to combine thoroughly and aerate for even rise.
- Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar, melted vegetarian butter (plant-based), and vanilla extract (natural). Let sit for a minute to create a buttermilk-like base.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently just until combined, leaving a few lumps to maintain lightness.
- Preheat and Grease the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with vegetarian butter (plant-based) or oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot surface. Cook until bubbles form and edges set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip carefully and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve Warm: Transfer pancakes to a warm plate and repeat with remaining batter, adjusting heat as needed to avoid burning or undercooking.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients for better mixing and rise.
- Do not overmix; keep some lumps for fluffiness.
- A drop of water on the pan should dance and evaporate quickly when heated enough.
- Let batter rest 5-10 minutes to activate the natural gelling agent and improve texture.
- Keep cooked pancakes warm in an oven set to about 200°F while finishing the batch.
