Can’t take a pretty picture of pancakes when you’ve eaten all the pancakes.
Pancakes Sans Eggs
1 c. flour
1 T. sugar
1 T. baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 c. soy/organic/almond/whatever milk
2 T. vegetable oil
Sprinkle of chocolate chips* (not at all optional)
Whisk up all the dry.
Whisk in the wet.
Into the hot (lightly greased) frying pan! You all know how to cook a pancake. Sprinkle a few chocolate chips on top of the wet batter when you first pour it in if desired. And who wouldn’t desire?
1/4 cup scoops of batter will yield 6 pancakes. I make four smaller pancakes out of a halved recipe when it’s just Ellie and me.
Slather with fat** and maple syrup.
I found this recipe at Happy Little Vegans. I like them better without the 1/2 t. of cinnamon.
Chickens have it rough. Give them a break on Pancake morning.
*Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips are produced with no help from cows and (in my opinion) are the best chips in the grocery store.
**If you’re already using margarine, give Earth Balance a try. It melts beautifully, is non-hydrogenated and doesn’t even contain the little bit of milk that the others do. If I can get it at my Wal-Mart, I’m sure y’all can find it at the grocery store.
Cool! A new vegan site! Thanks!
Have you decided to become a vegan, or is this just a part of consuming fewer but better animal products?
We haven’t gone Vegan, we just eat that way a lot of the time. It’s part of the “fewer but better” animal products and our “eat lower on the food chain” initiative. We found a local guy for eggs (his farm is so very cool and he has the biggest dog ever), but I didn’t have any all this week because I couldn’t get out there to pick them up. Thus the egg-free pancakes.
Vegan baking has been a great way to cut back on butter and eggs, and Ellie can help and taste all she likes. My collection of recipes that are genuinely good (and not in a sad, butter-free way) is growing.
We are shifting our convenience food buying habits to only include egg-free items (like Oreos instead of Pepperidge Farm) because poultry is horribly mistreated. Chickens aren’t creatures to the factory farmers, they are egg machines.
Cage Free doesn’t equal kindness. I’m tired of eating things made with mean.
Yummy. We love pancakes with choc chips, too.
We get our eggs from Polyface Farms. Well, via our organic grocery, but we’ll go up there later this year and get them directly. Love your last sentence in your comment. 🙂
Thanks and please enter my giveaway (link in comment) =D
Thanks for this recipe. We have used Bisquick, but struggle to make egg-free pancakes for my husband. (Not vegan, but lacto-veg)
