Pancakes (Vegan)

You can serve your vegan pancakes with Syrup, Jam, or Nutella.


Ingredients

1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup soy milk
Vegetable oil


Procedure

Mix all dry ingredients; flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Mix soy milk into the dry ingredients.

Heat a griddle until water sprinkled on it quickly evaporates. Spread a thin film of oil on the griddle.

Pour pancake batter on griddle to form 4 to 5 inch circles. Bubbles should start forming.

When the underside is light brown, flip the pancake.

When the other side is light brown, serve.


Variations

Banana pancakes: add one well mashed banana to the batter.
Chocolate pancakes: add 1/2 cup chocolate chips to the batter.
Walnut pancakes: add 1/2 cup roughly chopped walnuts to the batter.
Cranberry pancakes: add 1/2 cup dried cranberries to the batter.
Any of the above ingredients can be mixed together.


Warnings

Don't overmix. Overmixing will produce gluten which will inhibit rising and make the pancakes rubbery.
