These pancakes are our family’s go-to weekend treat—simple, fun for the kids to make, and delicious every time! The best part ? They’re dairy-free, gluten-free, egg-free, and refined sugar-free, with no extra oil or butter needed for cooking . Yes, you heard right! Make them for your kids and tell me if they taste a difference to regular pancakes.
Ingredients (for 12-14 medium pancakes, enough for 2 kids and mom and dad):
2 cups gluten-free flour (I make my own now but we started with King Arthur's blend, good texture)
3 tablespoons organic maple sugar or sugar of your choice
2 tablespoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups non-dairy milk (almond/oat mix works great like Malk or Forager)
2 tablespoons organic apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
A splash of sparkling water (just a few tablespoons to finish the batter)
For serving:
Cinnamon apple pieces (cut apples and sprinkle with cinnamon, no sugar needed)
Maple syrup
Fresh berries
Organic high quality hazelnut-chocolate spread with sliced bananas
A little butter (optional)
Powdered sugar (optional, for a tiny sweet touch)
Instructions:
In a bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the wet ingredients: non-dairy milk, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla.
Stir until just combined (it’s okay if it’s a bit lumpy).
Add a splash of sparkling water to the batter and gently fold it in to give the pancakes extra fluffiness. Be careful not to over-mix. Let sit for a couple of minutes.
Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium-low heat—no oil or butter needed!
Spoon batter onto the pan in small circles, about 2-3 tablespoons each. Cook until little bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Serve with your favorite toppings: cinnamon apples, maple syrup, fresh berries, hazelnut spread, and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
Enjoy the light, fluffy goodness of these pancakes with your loved ones—perfect for a sweet and special weekend breakfast! tag #wholefoodjourney if you make them !
