Vegan Chia Seed Pancakes
Vegan chia seed pancakes are a delicious and healthier alternative to traditional pancakes made without eggs and dairy.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 cup unsweetened plant-based milk
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup optional
- a pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together the chia seeds and plant-based milk. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes until it forms a gel-like consistency.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the chia seed mixture, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract, and maple syrup (if using) to the dry ingredients and stir until well combined.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once hot, spoon 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the pan for each pancake.
- Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the pancakes hot with your choice of toppings, such as maple syrup, fruit, or vegan butter.
Notes
Note: You may need to adjust the amount of plant-based milk used depending on the consistency of the batter. If it is too thick, you can add a little more milk to thin it out. If it is too thin, you can add a little more flour to thicken it up.
