Recipe tip: Make your own homemade oat milk with our recipe. An easy, creamy milk alternative for vegans – simply use rolled oats and water, blend together and strain through a muslin. To keep it vegan, use maple syrup as a sweetener.

Ingredients

  • 150g plain flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 150ml oat or soya milk
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tbsp melted and cooled coconut oil, plus another 2 tbsp for frying
  • to serve maple syrup

Method

  • STEP 1

    To make the pancakes put the flour and baking powder in a bowl and stir together. Mix together the milk, maple syrup, vanilla and coconut oil.

  • STEP 2

    Gradually stir the wet ingredients into the dry until you have a batter. Leave to sit for 3 minutes.

  • STEP 3

    Stir the batter again and pour into a jug.

  • STEP 4

    Heat a non-stick frying pan with a little more coconut oil. Cooking 2 or 3 pancakes at a time, pour in enough batter to make small, 10cm American-style pancakes. Leave to cook until you see bubbles forming on top of the pancakes, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

  • STEP 5

    Keep warm in a low oven while you make the rest. Serve stacked and drizzled with maple syrup.
