Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar or natural maple syrup
- 3/4 cup plant-based milk
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
- 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent
- coconut oil, for cooking
Instructions
- Prepare your batter: Whisk the coconut cream until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar or natural maple syrup, and natural gelling agent. Slowly add the coconut cream and plant-based milk mixture while stirring gently to form a light, lump-free batter.
- Add flavor boosters: Mix in the vanilla extract (natural) and a splash of vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) to enrich the flavor. If desired, fold in chosen variations like tropical fruits, spices, nuts, or plant-based chocolate chips now.
- Heat the pan and cook: Warm a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and brush lightly with coconut oil. Pour a ladleful of batter onto the surface and cook until bubbles form on top and edges look set, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip carefully and cook the other side until golden brown.
- Serve hot: Stack the pancakes immediately to keep them warm and fluffy. Serve with fresh fruit, natural maple syrup, plant-based yogurt, or any favorite topping for maximum enjoyment.
Notes
- Use coconut cream and plant-based milk at room temperature for smoother batter.
- Stir gently to combine ingredients without overmixing to keep pancakes tender.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to activate the natural gelling agent and improve fluffiness.
- Cook pancakes over medium heat to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
- Use a non-stick pan to avoid sticking and achieve perfectly round pancakes.
