    Fluffy Vegan Pancakes are soft and fluffy pancakes without eggs or dairy. Filling and healthy option for a weekend breakfast!

    These pancakes are so delicious and always a hit, just like my Healthy Pumpkin Muffins, made with oat flour, lots of pumpkin and no eggs or dairy!

    Every Sunday morning is pancakes and waffles for breakfast in our family. Occasionally, my Hubby and I will have biscuits and gravy. But pancakes are a must. For the past few weeks, I have been playing with my go-to recipe for the best fluffy pancakes to make it healthier and vegan. I love the result!

    These Vegan Fluffy Pancakes are so easy to make and ultra light and fluffy, all while eggless and dairy free. They are filling thanks to whole wheat flour and pumpkin puree. Topped with fresh fruit and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, these Vegan Pancakes are perfect guilt-free weekend breakfast!

    Ingredients:

    • all-purpose flour
    • whole wheat flour
    • brown sugar
    • baking powder
    • baking soda
    • salt
    • cinnamon
    • almond milk
    • apple cider vinegar
    • pumpkin puree
    • olive oil
    • vanilla extract

    How to make pancakes without dairy and eggs?

    There are only two ingredients that you need to change in a classic pancake recipe to make them vegan: eggs and milk. Perfect substitutes for eggs are mashed bananas, applesauce or pumpkin puree. The easiest substitute is dairy. I used almond milk but you can use whatever milk you eat with your cereal in the morning. I also used a combination of white all-purpose and whole wheat flour to make these even healthier and more filling.

    Instructions:

    • Whisk all of the wet ingredients together, add the dry ingredients and whisk until the batter is thick and light. It will have air pockets.
    • Preheat the griddle, spray with coconut oil spray or olive oil spray and fry pancakes as usual.
    • Serve with fresh berries or sliced bananas, chopped nuts and drizzle of honey or pure maple syrup.

    Expert tip:

    If your batter doesn't look like the picture below, but rather is runny, you didn't measure out the flour properly. The correct way to measure out flour is to fluff it with a fork or a spoon in the container you store it in, then spoon it into the measuring cup.

    These Fluffy Vegan Pancakes have quickly became my family's favorite. My kids love this healthier version! I hope you will give this recipe a try and love it too!

    Notes

    This recipe makes 12 pancakes. 
    If your batter doesn't look like the picture below, but rather is runny, you didn't measure out the flour properly. The correct way to measure out flour is to fluff it with a fork or a spoon in the container you store it in, then spoon it into the measuring cup.
    For a time-saving version, use this recipe and follow the instructions of my Sheet Pan Pancakes! So easy and no standing and flipping pancakes needed!
