This is a banana-free version of my popular banana oatmeal pancakes, also made with oat flour. If you find Vegan Pancakes too classic, this recipe is for you! These delicious fluffy vegan pancakes with oats and no bananas or fruits are the perfect healthy breakfast for the whole family.
Ingredients and Substitution Tips
It’s very easy to make oatmeal pancakes without eggs or dairy. All you need are a few simple ingredients:
Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats – You can also use quick oats it doesn’t impact the texture of the pancakes at all. Whole Wheat Flour or all-purpose flour – It’s a vegan pancake recipe which means we don’t use eggs or bananas so the binder will be a touch of wheat flour. If you want a gluten-free swap, try an all-purpose gluten-free flour blend. To make it gluten-free, choose a gluten-free oat brand and use all-purpose gluten-free flour to replace flour. Also, make sure your baking powder doesn’t contains wheat or replace it with 1/2 tablespoon of baking soda and add 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to the liquid ingredients. Baking Powder – Without gluten for a gluten-free recipe. Vanilla Extract – For the taste. Almond Milk – You can also use water or any plant-based milk like soy milk. Maple Syrup – or any other vegan liquid sweetener such as agave syrup or coconut nectar. You can use any natural sugar-free sweetener like erythritol or allulose to make it sugar-free. Cinnamon – For an additional twist of flavor.
How To Make Vegan Oatmeal Pancakes
Cooking The Pancakes
Warm a pancake griddle or crepe pan over medium heat. Use a piece of absorbent paper dipped in a bit of olive oil to rub the pan or griddle. Scoop two tablespoons of batter, not more, or the pancakes will be difficult to flip or dense, onto the warm griddle. Spread with a back of a spoon into a round shape. Cook until the edges of the pancakes start to dry which takes about 2 to 3 minutes, then flip them and keep cooking on the other side until they are golden brown. Let the pancake cool down on a wire rack and repeat with the remaining batter.
Batter Add-Ons
If you like adding flavor to your pancakes, you can stir 1/4 cup of the below ingredients in the pancake batter:
Blueberries Chocolate Chips – dark or dairy-free milk chocolate chips. Chopped Nuts Grated Carrots or try my vegan carrot cake pancakes instead.
