It’s Pancake Day! This annual holiday is a great excuse to treat yourself to some delicious pancakes. Sweet or savoury you’ll be able to create your favourite stack with this tasty recipe below.  

This vegan-friendly pancake recipe is completely customisable with whichever toppings you’d like to add. Let us know how it goes and what toppings you choose!   

Ingredients:  

(Makes 16 pancakes) 

• 300g Plain Flour 
• 1 tsp baking powder 
• 1 tsp vanilla extract 
• 400ml Almond Milk  
• A pinch of salt  
• Vegetable oil for frying  

To Serve:  

• Toppings of your choice. We recommend: Blueberries, Banana slices, Agave Nectar and Vegan Chocolate Chips.  

Method:  

Step 1-  

Using a balloon whisk, combine the sugar, flour, baking powder, vanilla extract and salt in a bowl until there are no lumps visible. Slowly stir in the milk to the mixture until you get a smooth and thick batter.  

Step 2-  

Heat a small amount of oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Wait until the oil starts to bubble then add in the batter. For a small, thin pancake add in 2 tbsp. or for a thicker American style pancake then double this. Do this in batches of two/three at a time.  

Step 3-  

Cook for 3-4 minutes until the edges look set and bubbles appear in the batter’s surface. Then use a spatula to flip the pancakes over and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes.  

Step 4- 

Serve stacked with lots of yummy toppings of your choice. Or serve with bowls of toppings so everyone can help themselves.
