Vegan Pancakes......Yum!


Thanks to those Skinny Bitches
I can now have pancakes! I've tried "healthy" pancakes before and they usually taste okay wise but flat and not fluffy. Try these wonderful pancakes, you'll actually feel good about eating pancakes!
Basic Pancakes
Makes about 8 4-5 inch pancakes
1 1/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 1/2 cups rice milk
2 tablespoons refined coconut oil, melted, or safflower oil
1 tablespoon maple syrup, plus more for serving
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (my option!)
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together the rice milk, oil, maple syrup and vanilla. Whisk the milk mixture into the flour mixture, stirring just until combined. Add walnuts if using.
Preheat a nonstick griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium heat for at least 2 minutes. About 1/4 cup at a time, pour the batter onto the grill or skillet. Cook until bubbles appear, the edges are set, and the pancakes are nicely browned on the bottom (about 2-3 minutes). Turn and cook until the other side is nicely browned, 1-2 minute. If necessary, keep the finished pancakes in a warm oven while you finish the batter. Serve hot with maple syrup.
