Whipped up some of these on Sunday morning after a late night out and in preparation for my day-long hike. Although I cannot remember where I found the recipe (it was somewhere on the web) many people seemed to agree that this was a good one.
The consistency is similar to that of Bisquick pancakes (which were my favorite). If you are used to the extra-fluffy light things you might find at a pancake shop - don't look here. The non-vegans liked them (not quite as well as the usual, but neither did I). They seem to be a good substitution for the "real thing." I doubled the recipe since I was feeding a group of people and it worked well.
Pretty Darn Good Vegan Pancakes
Ingredients:
1C flour (I suppose you can use whichever type you have at hand. I used unbleached)
2t baking powder
1/2 t salt
3 T sugar
1t vanilla
1 egg replacer (I used Ener-G)
1 C soy milk
2 T veg oil
Directions:
Mix the wet ingredients (vanilla, egg replacer, soy milk & veg oil)
Mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, sugar, salt)
Pour the wet into the dry and mix until smooth.
I cooked these on my "griddler." The pancakes do "bubble" when they are ready to flip. They golden nicely & taste sweetly of vanilla.
I had maple syrup from some of my baking and did not enjoy it on my pancakes. Much too sweet. I suppose that I am accustomed to the thick high fructose corn syrup version of "maple syrup". I think that these would be tastier with blueberries or bananas thrown in. Think I will give it a try next go-round.
On another note:
I made a product request at Greenlife last Tuesday and they had it in the store on Sunday! It was a fantastic surprise! I will be sure to write about my very thrilling discovery next!!
