Description

Delicious and fluffy vegan blueberry pancakes made with dairy-free soy milk and fresh blueberries. These pancakes are perfect for a hearty breakfast or brunch, featuring a tender crumb and a naturally sweet flavor from the berries and sugar.


Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened soy milk
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons melted vegan butter

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Add-ins

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries


Instructions

  1. Make vegan buttermilk: In a large measuring cup or bowl, pour in the soy milk. Add the apple cider vinegar, stir lightly, and set aside to curdle. This creates the vegan buttermilk.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
  3. Combine wet and dry: Pour the vegan buttermilk and melted vegan butter into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a large spoon until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay to keep pancakes light and fluffy.
  4. Heat the pan: Place a large griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Grease it lightly with vegan butter or coconut oil.
  5. Cook pancakes: Drop about 1/3 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Top each with several fresh blueberries. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown on the other side.
  6. Serve and enjoy: Serve the pancakes warm with vegan butter, syrup, coconut whipped cream, and extra blueberries if desired.

Notes

  • You can substitute soy milk with almond, cashew, oat, or coconut milk.
  • If you cannot use apple cider vinegar, lemon juice works as an alternative to curdle the milk.
  • Try using whole wheat pastry flour, gluten-free all purpose flour, spelt, or oat flour for variations.
  • Maple syrup, agave, or coconut sugar can replace granulated sugar for natural sweetness.
  • Use coconut oil, a neutral oil, or applesauce instead of vegan butter for oil-free pancakes.
  • Store leftover pancakes in the refrigerator for 1-2 days or freeze for longer storage.
