1 15 (3-inch) pancakes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup, or 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted and cooled slightly
  • 1 cup vanilla almond milk or other non-dairy milk
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or coconut oil, for cooking

Directions

  1. 1

    Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.

  2. 2

    Add the wet ingredients and whisk until smooth. Add the maple syrup or sugar, melted coconut oil, and milk, and whisk until smooth.

  3. 3

    Set the batter aside while you heat a pan. Set the batter aside for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Fry the pancakes for 2 to 3 minutes per side, 3 pancakes at a time. Add 1 teaspoon vegetable or coconut oil to the pan and swirl the pan to coat the bottom. Add 2-tablespoon portions of the batter to the pan, cooking about 3 per batch. Cook on the first side until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges begin to look dry.

  5. 5

    Flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, then transfer to a warm oven or plate. Using a flat spatula, flip the pancakes and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate or into a 200°F oven to keep warm. Repeat cooking the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
