Vegan Pancakes

Pancakes don’t need eggs or cow’s milk. Yal makes them with flour, plant milk and water, then tops them however she likes: banana, the homemade peanut butter from our earlier episode, maple syrup, and cacao flakes from Eshmoon, a Lebanese organic brand and one of our sponsors.

The batter is the base. Change the fruit, the nut butter or the syrup, and it is a different breakfast every time.

The Recipe

  • 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder

  • 2 Tbsp of sugar
  • 1 cup plant-based milk

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar (dry ingredients)
  2. Pour the milk, water, and oil into the dry ingredients
  3. Don’t over-mix (mix until smooth and a little thick)
  4. Heat a pan
  5. Put a little oil in the pan, don’t let the oil burn.
  6. Pour ⅓ cup of batter into the pan and wait until bubbles form, then flip. Each side takes 1 to 2 minutes.
