230 grams self-raising flour sieved, or plain/all-purpose flour with an extra teaspoon of baking powder
2 tablespoon granulated sugar or caster sugar/your usual sweetener.
375 millilitres plant milk such as oat or soya
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon white distilled vinegar
2 teaspoon vanilla extract

vegetable oil optional. If using a pancake maker/non-stick hotplate oil is likely not necessary.

Place all dry ingredients into a mixing bowl and stir.
Add wet ingredients and whisk well.
If your batter is too thick add an extra 1-2 tablespoon of plant milk.
Although this recipe does create a thick batter so don't make your batter too runny.
Leave in the fridge for at least 20 minutes.
Heat your non-stick frying pan over a medium heat.
Use oil if necessary.
If using a pancake maker set the hotplate to a medium-high temperature.
Pour 60ml (¼ cup) of batter per pancake.
Flip the pancakes when lots of bubbles have appeared over the surface.
Cook on the other side for a minute or two until golden.
Depending on your pan a little more oil may be necessary to prevent sticking.
If you want to keep pancakes warm lay each cooked pancake between parchment paper and keep warm on a low temperature in the oven.
Or cool to enjoy at room temperature.

Vegetable oil has not been included within the analysis.
Leftover pancakes can be kept in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. Cover with food-grade wrap.
Or freeze the pancakes for up to 4 months. Wrap well to avoid freezer crystals. And its recommended to add a small piece of kitchen parchment between each pancake, as it will prevent freezing together and removal of single pancakes will be much simpler.
Pancake batter can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days. Mix well before use, and add a tablespoon of plant milk if mix really thick.
Serve your pancakes with fresh or frozen berries, grapes, bananas, pineapple chunks, orange segments, kiwi slices, etc.
A scoop of plain or vanilla vegan yogurt is a tasty addition.
