Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or other plant-based milk)
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)
• 2 teaspoons Vegan butter or oil for cooking

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the unsweetened almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Stir briefly and set aside for 5 minutes to create a vegan 'buttermilk'.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 3

Once the vegan 'buttermilk' is ready, add the vanilla extract and vegetable oil to the mixture. Stir well.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

Step 5

Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with vegan butter or a small amount of oil.

Step 6

Once the pan is hot, scoop 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread the batter into a circle if needed.

Step 7

Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover with a clean towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the pan as needed.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dollop of vegan whipped cream.
