My last sugar free pancake recipe was a big hit, so now it’s time for me to give you my gluten-free vegan pancakes version!
In my household, we have pancakes for breakfast at least twice a week. One day, a childhood friend came over for breakfast who happens to be vegan as well as gluten intolerant! I had no choice but to improvise.
These vegan and gluten free pancakes actually came out really good, just add a drizzle of maple syrup and a couple of fresh blueberries, and the family will love it!
Ingredients
Get hold of the following ingredients to make these gluten free and egg free pancakes:
- 1½ cups of gluten free flour (I like to use almond flour but you can also use oat flour, brown rice flour or coconut flour)
- 1 Tbsp of baking powder
- 2 tsp of coconut sugar
- 3/4 cup of potato starch
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1 Tbsp of coconut oil
- 2 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of dairy free milk (I use almond milk, you can also use oat milk or coconut milk)
Recipe for vegan and gluten free pancakes
Step 1
Combine the gluten free flour, potato starch, baking powder, coconut sugar, and pinch of sea salt in a large bowl and mix them all together.
Step 2
Mix in the remaining ingredients: dairy free milk, vanilla extract, and coconut oil. Stir well until all the ingredients are fully mixed together. This is your pancake batter.
Step 3
Wipe a little coconut oil or melted vegan butter onto your non-stick pan and heat on medium to low heat.
Step 4
For each pancake, add 3/4 cup of pancake batter to a frying pan and press down on it just enough so that it spreads a little.
Step 5
Cook the first side for about 3 minutes, or until the top start to bubble a little, flip it over and then cook the remaining side for a further minute. Both sides should be golden brown.
Top with maple syrup and your favorite toppings and enjoy.
