Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil (e.g., canola or vegetable oil)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk together to mix evenly.
In a separate bowl or measuring cup, mix the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for a minute to create a vegan buttermilk.
Add the vanilla extract and cooking oil to the vegan buttermilk mixture and stir to combine.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently whisk until the batter is smooth, without overmixing. It’s okay if there are a few small lumps.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of oil if needed.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles begin to form on the surface and the edges start to look set.
Flip the pancakes carefully with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as necessary between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, or vegan whipped cream.
