    • Baking Powder - This helps the pancakes to rise up in the hot pan!

    • You’ll also need - Canola oil, vanilla extract, white sugar, water

    Allergy Substitutions 

    To make these dairy free (and vegan) use your favorite non-dairy milk in place of the milk in this recipe. It works perfectly! In fact, I used rice milk in these photos of pancakes. Top with vegan butter and enjoy! 

    To make these corn free, replace the baking powder with a corn free baking powder. Also make sure to use a corn free vanilla extract. 

    Instructions 

    For the full instructions, complete with measurements, please see the recipe card below!

    1. Start by sifting together all the dry ingredients into a large bowl. 
    2. In another bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients. 
    3. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined. 
    4. Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with oil. 
    5. Cook the pancakes until the bottoms are brown and the bubbles have formed and popped on top of the pancake (about 4 minutes). Flip and cook for another few minutes on the second side. 
    6. Repeat with the remaining batter and enjoy! 

    Variations

    • Blueberry - Fold in 1 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries.
    • Chocolate Chip - Fold in 1 cup of mini chocolate chips. 
    • Mocha - Add 1 tablespoon cocoa powder and 2 teaspoons instant espresso powder. 
    • Peanut Butter - Top with sliced bananas and a spoonful of your favorite nut butter. Try sunbutter for a nut free version.

    How to Store 

    This can’t be made ahead of time with the batter and left overnight in the fridge because of the reaction of the baking powder with the hot skillet. 

    Fridge: After cooking, pancakes can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. 

    Freezer: After cooking, the cooled pancakes can be kept in an airtight container with parchment paper in between the pancakes in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and heat again before serving. 

    FAQ

    Can I make these gluten free?

    Yes! They will make good gluten-free pancakes. Just use your favorite gluten free flour blend (I always suggest King Arthur Measure for Measure). Or, check out this gluten free pancake recipe here!

    What is the best pan for pancakes?

    Good pancakes are made on either a hot griddle or in a non-stick pan. Use a medium to medium-low heat for the first pancake and make sure you use a neutral vegetable oil for cooking them in.

    Perfect Pancake Tips! 

    • This recipe easily doubles for more pancakes! 
    • The amount of water you need depends on several factors such as altitude and the weather outside when you are making them. Use the water suggestion as a guideline and add more water or less depending on your pancakes.
    • Let the pancake batter rest for 10 minutes before you start to cook them. The gluten in the flour starts to relax after a few minutes which gives you fluffier pancakes! 
    • Go lightly on oiling the pan and use a fresh batch of oil each round of pancakes. Use a damp towel to carefully wipe away any excess between each round. 
    • Use about a ¼ cup of batter per pancake. 
    • The first one is always the worst! Share it with your dog or just eat it while you make the remaining (fluffier) pancakes.
