Ingredients

To make this recipe easier, we’re going to blend it in a blender. That way, it pours a lot easier as well.

• Old fashioned oats – Instead of using flour, we’re going to be making our own oat flour by blending up old fashioned oats in the blender. It makes this recipe more healthy. If you’d like this to be gluten free, make sure to use certified gluten free oats.

• Vinegar – We’re mixing the vinegar in with our plant milk to make vegan buttermilk. This will give a delicious taste to the pancakes, as well as making them really fluffy, because the vinegar will react with the baking soda to create lift.

• Plant milk – Use whatever is your favorite. I love using soy milk because it’s so creamy.
• Maple syrup – This is my sweetener of choice. You can also use brown sugar instead.
• Pumpkin puree
• Baking soda & baking powder
• Pumpkin pie spice
• Vanilla

Recipe tips

After making the batter in the blender, let it sit for five minutes. This will give the vinegar time to react with the baking soda to make super fluffy pancakes.

Let your pan heat up, with vegan butter or oil, for at least five minutes.

Make sure to not put the pan on too high of heat. A low and slow cooking for pancakes is best. Use medium low heat.

If the batter becomes too thick while sitting, just blend it up for a few seconds. It will pour a lot easier.

FAQ

Can I freeze these pancakes?

Yes! Pancakes are great to freeze. Just make a big batch. Then set them on a baking tray, spread out. Let them freeze like that first, for a few hours. Then transfer them to a freezer friendly bag. This will ensure they don’t freeze sticking together.

Is this gluten free?

These pancakes can easily be made gluten free by using certified gluten free oats, vanilla and vegan yogurt. Also check to make sure your pumpkin pie spice is gluten free, if you have a severe gluten allergy.

Notes

 

Make sure to keep your heat on medium low and don’t be in a rush to flip them before you see the bubbles.

Let the batter sit for 5 minutes before pouring into the pan. This gives the baking soda time to react with the vinegar so they get nice and fluffy.
