Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free blend for gluten-free option)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup plant-based milk (plant-based), unsweetened
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
- 2 tablespoons oil or melted coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract (natural)
Instructions
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together thoroughly to distribute the leavening agents evenly and break up any lumps for consistent rising.
- Blend the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar (natural), oil, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and vanilla extract (natural). The apple cider vinegar will react with the baking powder creating essential air bubbles.
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently just until combined. The batter should remain slightly lumpy to keep pancakes tender; avoid overmixing.
- Preheat the Pan and Cook: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with oil or melted coconut oil. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the pan. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and edges look set, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
- Serve Warm and Enjoy: Stack the fluffy pancakes high with your favorite toppings and enjoy a delicious breakfast experience.
Notes
- Use fresh baking powder for best rising results and fluffy texture.
- Measure all ingredients accurately to ensure consistent texture and flavor.
- Stir batter gently to avoid toughness; do not overmix.
- Preheat the pan well to prevent sticking and achieve a golden crust.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking to enhance fluffiness thanks to the natural gelling agent.
