Enjoy a delicious and healthy breakfast with our egg-free grain-based pancakes topped with fresh fruit. Perfect for those with dietary restrictions or anyone looking for a tasty morning treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats or oat flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour or gluten-free flour blend
- 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed mixed with 6 tablespoons water (flax egg)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups plant-based milk (almond, soy, or oat milk)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh fruit for topping (berries, banana slices, mango, etc.)
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed with water and let it sit for a few minutes until it thickens to create a flax egg.
Add the flax egg, plant-based milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. The batter should be slightly thick but pourable. If it’s too thick, add a little more plant milk.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with oil or cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the pancakes warm topped with fresh fruit. Add a drizzle of maple syrup or a dollop of dairy-free yogurt for extra flavor. These pancakes are perfect for a nutritious breakfast that everyone will enjoy.
Tips for Success
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and make flipping easier.
- Adjust the thickness of the batter with more or less plant milk as needed.
- Experiment with different toppings like sliced kiwi, peaches, or a sprinkle of nuts.
