Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon natural baking powder
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups plant-based milk
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (natural)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
- 3 tablespoons melted plant-based butter
Instructions
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, natural baking powder, natural gelling agent, and salt to ensure even distribution of the rising agents and foundation for fluffy pancakes.
- Combine the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, blend the plant-based milk, maple syrup (natural), apple cider vinegar, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, vanilla extract (natural), and melted plant-based butter to meld the flavors well.
- Bring it all together: Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain light, fluffy texture, leaving a few lumps in the batter.
- Cook to golden perfection: Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with plant-based butter. Pour batter onto the surface to your desired pancake size. Cook until bubbles appear and edges look set, then flip and cook an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve hot and enjoy: Serve the fluffy pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings or keep warm in a low oven until ready to eat.
Notes
- Use fresh natural baking powder to ensure maximum rise for airy pancakes.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes tender and soft.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking to activate rising agents for extra fluff.
- Cook on medium heat to avoid burning outside or undercooking inside.
- Use a natural gelling agent to add structure without heaviness.
- Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven to serve fresh and hot together.
