Pancakes are easy to make vegan – and Shrove Tuesday is a good time for feasting on pancakes to your heart’s content!
This pancake recipe, adapted from The Everyday Veggie, has just three ingredients: flour, almond milk and coconut oil.
Sound too simple to be true? Try it for yourself – it really is that easy to produce delicious pancakes.
Vegan Pancakes
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup + 1 Tbsp almond milk or soy milk
3 Tbsp coconut oil + more for frying
- Stir together the flour and almond milk until smooth, with no lumps.
- Stir in the coconut oil and place the batter in the fridge for 5 minutes.
- Put your frying pan on medium heat for a few minutes.
- Pour a little oil in the pan, and using a piece of kitchen roll, make sure the whole pan is coated in the coconut oil.
- Take the pan off the heat and pour about 1/2 cup of batter into it.
- Swirl it around the pan so the batter coats the bottom.
- Put the pan back on the heat, gently shake it back and forth, and flip the pancake once it slides around freely and bubbles begin forming.
- Cook for about the same amount of time on the other side.
- Slide the pancake onto a plate and start again with the next pancake.
- Top with sugar and lemon juice.
- Keep the pancakes going in the hot pan until all the batter is gone – or you’re full!
