Ingredients Needed

  • Milk: I’m using oat milk, but feel free to use any plant based milk or regular milk. 
  • Sunflower Oil: you can swap out sunflower oil for another neutral oil, or you can use apple sauce or melted butter. 
  • Flour: I’m using all purpose flour in this pancake batter recipe, but if you’re gluten free you can use all purpose gluten free 1-1 baking flour. You can also use white whole wheat flour, whole wheat flour, or oat flour by weight. If you want to use oat flour, you’ll need 2 cups and 2 tablespoons of oat flour. 
  • Sugar: you can use regular granulated sugar or coconut sugar.

Step by Step Instructions

egg-free pancakes process in three steps

Step 1: Add the oat milk, vanilla extract and oil to a large bowl and whisk until combined.

Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. It’s fine if there are some small lumps of flour!

Step 3: Heat a large skillet or nonstick griddle to medium low heat. If you’re using a pan, add a bit of butter to grease the pan or spray with cooking oil.

Step 4: Once the pan or griddle is hot (you can test this by dropping a drop of water, if it sizzles then it’s ready), scoop out ¼ cup of pancake batter and pour onto the pan.

Step 5: Once bubbles start to form on the pancake, use a spatula to flip it over and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and serve with your favorite toppings!

Expert Tips

  • Measure your flour: It is so important to measure your flour with a kitchen scale, otherwise you might end up with dry pancakes. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, make sure you use the scoop and level method to measure the flour.
  • Don’t over mix the batter: stop mixing the pancake batter once it’s combined, even if there are a few small lumps of flour. 
  • Flipping the pancakes: keep an eye on the pancakes so they don’t burn, but you also don’t want to flip them too early! Once one side has bubbles on it, you can flip the pancake and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes.

Storage Instructions

Store any leftover egg-free pancakes in a Ziploc bag or airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

To freeze, place in a freezer safe bag and let them thaw at room temperature or microwave them to enjoy.

Equipment

Notes

Please Note: I highly recommend using a kitchen scale to weigh your dry ingredients. Metric measurements are found above under the “Metric” tab.
Measuring Flour: To avoid over-measuring, properly measure your flour using either a kitchen scale or using the scoop and level method.
Substituting Flour: You can substitute white whole wheat flour, whole wheat flour, or oat flour by weight (not volume, or the pancakes could be dry). If using oat flour, you will need 2 cups + 2 Tablespoons of oat flour (255 grams).
Tips for Cooking Pancakes:
-Don’t Over-mix the batter, or you may end up with tough, rubbery pancakes. When the last streaks of flour are gone, stop mixing the batter. 
-Watch the heat! If your pancakes are burning before the batter has started to bubble, your heat is too high! I recommend doing a test pancake to make sure the temperature is right.
-Don’t flip the pancakes too early, or you may end up with raw batter in the middle. Wait until the bubbles form
Storage and Freezing: The pancakes can be stored in a Ziploc bag or airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. They also freeze really well! Freeze them in a Ziploc freezer bag then either let them thaw in the fridge or microwave and enjoy right away!
