What Ingredients do I Need for Pancake?

  • 1 cup Wheat Flour, Refined - default
  • 1 tsp Baking powder - default
  • 1 tbsp Sugar - default
  • 0.25 tsp Salt, Table, Iodized - default
  • 0.75 cup Non-dairy milk (e.g., almond or oat milk) - default
  • 2 tbsp Safflower Oil - default
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract - default
  • 0.25 tsp Cinnamon - default
  • 1 tsp butter - default

Instructions: How to Make Pancake

  • Mix Dry Ingredients:
    In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
  • Prepare Wet Ingredients:
    In a separate bowl, whisk together the non-dairy milk, vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil), and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently to combine. Be careful not to over-mix—it's okay if the batter is a little lumpy.
  • Heat the Pan:
    Heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil
  • Cook the Pancakes:
    Pour a small ladleful of batter onto the skillet, forming a 4–5 inch round pancake. Cook for about 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to look set.
  • Flip and Cook the Other Side:
    Flip the pancake carefully using a spatula and cook for another 1–2 minutes until both sides are golden brown.
  • Serve:
    Remove from the pan and serve immediately with syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.

Equipments Needed

Mixing bowls

Whisk or spoon

Measuring cups and spoons

Non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan

Spatula

Variations and Substitutes

Use whole wheat flour or oat flour for a healthier, whole-grain option.

For a fluffier pancake, replace non-dairy milk with carbonated water or sparkling water.

Add berries or chocolate chips into the batter for extra flavor.

Use maple syrup, agave syrup, or fruit puree as a topping instead of refined sugar.

Pancake Serving Suggestions

Serve with a dollop of dairy-free yogurt, fresh fruit like banana slices or berries, and a drizzle of maple syrup or honey for sweetness.

Storage Tips

Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, place them on a baking sheet and warm in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes, or heat in a skillet for 1–2 minutes on each side.

Visual Presentation

Stack the golden pancakes high on a plate, drizzled with syrup and topped with fresh berries or a dusting of powdered sugar for an appealing look.
