Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
Wet Ingredients
- 3/4 cup coconut cream
- 1 cup plant-based milk
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or melted plant-based butter
Instructions
- Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, salt, and natural gelling agent to ensure the leavening is evenly distributed throughout your batter.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the coconut cream, plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), vanilla extract (natural), and vegetable oil or melted plant-based butter. Whisk until smooth and homogeneous.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some small lumps are okay and help keep the pancakes tender and fluffy.
- Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle on medium heat and lightly grease it. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the surface. Cook until bubbles form on the edges and the top surface looks set, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve Hot and Enjoy: Stack your Coconut Cream Pancakes and top as desired for a breakfast that will impress both in taste and presentation.
Notes
- Ensure all wet ingredients are at room temperature to help the batter mix smoothly and rise better.
- Stir the batter just enough to combine for light, fluffy pancakes; do not overmix.
- Cook the pancakes on medium heat to prevent burning while keeping the inside soft and cooked through.
- Let the batter rest for 5 to 10 minutes to activate the natural gelling agent and enhance fluffiness.
- Use a non-stick surface to reduce oil use and prevent sticking for perfect pancake flipping.
