Say hello to your new favorite breakfast: Dairy-Free German Pancakes! This dish delivers the classic puffed and golden perfection of traditional German pancakes while using almond milk and coconut oil to keep it completely dairy-free. The batter, made with simple ingredients like eggs, vanilla extract, and all-purpose flour, whisks together in minutes before baking to airy heights in a hot skillet. Topped with a drizzle of maple syrup, a sprinkle of powdered sugar, and garnished with fresh berries and lemon wedges, these pancakes create a stunning balance between sweetness and zesty brightness. Perfect for a wholesome brunch or a family breakfast, this dairy-free delight serves up homemade comfort with a light and modern twist.
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch (25 cm) skillet or oven-safe frying pan with the coconut oil in the oven to heat up while you prepare the batter.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Add the almond milk, vanilla extract, and salt into the bowl with the eggs. Mix until well combined.
Gradually add the flour to the wet ingredients, whisking continuously to prevent lumps from forming and ensuring a smooth batter.
Once the oven has reached the desired temperature and the coconut oil is melted and hot, carefully pour the batter into the hot skillet.
Place the skillet back in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown on the edges.
Safe from the oven, remove the skillet and allow the pancake to settle for a minute.
Drizzle the pancake with maple syrup, then dust with powdered sugar.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges and fresh berries for a burst of flavor.
