Method
 

Main Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  2. In a separate medium bowl or large measuring cup, stir together the plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for a minute to curdle slightly (this creates a 'vegan buttermilk'). Then, whisk in the oil and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix with a whisk or spatula just until combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  4. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes. This is crucial for fluffy pancakes!
  5. Heat a lightly oiled non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look dry.
  6. Flip carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, and vegan butter.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter! A few lumps are perfectly fine and are the key to a tender, fluffy pancake.
For an extra rich flavor, use full-fat oat milk or soy milk and melted vegan butter instead of oil.
