All the pancakes you could ever want for Pancake Day! Pancake Day, or Shrove Tuesday, or Mardi Gras, or Fat Tuesday – is a day for indulgence. It falls on the day before Ash Wednesday, when the Lenten season starts. Lent is a time for fasting, so it’s become a tradition to eat up all the rich foods before.
While you won’t find any rich foods like dairy milk or eggs in these recipes, they are just as delicious as their traditional counterparts. You’re definitely going to want to bake up a batch of Vegan Pancakes today!
How to cook vegan pancakes
I prefer using a stove top griddle to cook my vegan pancakes. You can also use an electric counter top griddle, a non stick skillet or a well seasoned cast iron skillet on the stove, as well.
Be sure to leave an inch or two between pancakes so the batter doesn’t run together and you have enough space to flip them easily. A large thin flexible spatula works well for flipping the pancakes.
Cook them over medium heat for best results, but also know that you may need to adjust the heat as you go. If the heat is too high, the outsides of the pancakes will burn before the insides cook through. If your heat is too low, the pancakes may get tough from cooking so long and you won’t get that perfect golden color either.
Best pancake toppings
While pancakes can certainly be eaten on their own, they are typically served with toppings. Toppings can be whatever you like and can be combined however you like, as well. No need to pick just one. Some of our favorite toppings for vegan pancakes are:
- fresh berries
- sliced bananas
- stovetop cinnamon apples
- vegan chocolate chips
- shredded coconut
- chopped nuts
- drizzle of peanut butter
- dairy free caramel sauce
- fruity chia seed jam
- dairy free whipped cream
- pure maple syrup
FAQs
YES! Although, traditional pancakes aren’t vegan friendly, you can absolutely make homemade pancakes that are!
There are lots of ways to substitute eggs in baking. Applesauce, banana purée, oil, aquafaba, or my favorite egg substitute for vegan pancakes…flaxmeal.
