Easy vegan pancakes
Three ingredients, millions of possibilities.
There are many vegan pancake recipes floating around the internet, and a million and one ways to make them. Many use bananas, or oats, but I was longing for a recipe that didn’t taste like a specific ingredient. I wanted something that could be used as a base for savoury or sweet dishes, that was fluffy, light, and a blank canvas. I found it in this simple, three ingredient recipe.
Although this is undeniably plain and simple, you can dress it up with toppings and sauces or add things to the batter itself. Salt, pepper nutritional yeast and dried herbs work beautifully for savoury pancakes, cocoa powder, cinnamon and vanilla for sweet. The possibilities are honestly endless and I’d love to see what you create with this canvas. Don’t skip the sparkling water, it makes everything light and fluffy!

How to cook Easy Vegan Pancakes
- Mix ingredients until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
- Add a little oil to a pan (or use a reliable non-stick pan)
- Pour the batter into the pan, rotating to encourage an even spread.
- As the batter begins to bubble, gently lift up the edges with a spatula so that you can tell when the pancake is about ready to flip.
- In one decisive motion, slide a spatula underneath the pancake and flip it over, cooking the other side until golden brown.
- Serve with desired toppings.
