This is a really easy to make and easy to remember basic pancake recipe for thick, fluffy American style pancakes. They are egg free and can be made without any oil if desired as long as you use a non-stick pan.
I have kept the quantities as whole numbers and used store cupboard dark brown sugar to sweeten. You can get creative by swapping the sugar for a ripe banana, mashed sweet potato or apple sauce for sweetness and add different flavours such as mixed spice or cinnamon. You do not need eggs to bind these pancakes as the flour and milk mixture work just fine.
I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

First, assemble the ingredients together. You will need;
- Flour
- Plant-based milk
- Baking powder
- Brown sugar
Add the flour, baking powder and sugar to a mixing bowl and use a hand whisk to combine together.
Next, begin to slowly whisk in the milk;
Until it is all incorporated and you have a smooth, thick mixture;
If using oil, add a 1/4 tsp to a frying pan, heat then add 2 tbsp of the mixture per pancake to the pan. Fry on medium heat for about 1-2 mins. You will notice bubbles form on top and they are ready to flip once the top of the pancake looks like it is becoming solid;
Flip over and cook for another 30 seconds;
Place on a cooling rack and continue until you have used all of the mixture. I made 10 pancakes from this quantity.
Serve warm with thick coconut yoghurt, raspberries, pure Maple syrup and chocolate sauce and nibs;
