Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed meal
  • 3 tablespoons warm water
  • cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • cups plant-based milk (any variety)
  • 3 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • Vegetable oil or spray, for frying

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, beat together the flaxseed meal and water for 1 minute. Set aside for 5 minutes to let the mixture thicken.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  • Place the plant-based milk and vegan butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl, and microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds or until the butter is completely melted. Add the butter mixture, vanilla extract, and flaxseed meal mixture to the dry mixture and gently whisk by hand just until the batter is smooth, but there’s no need to remove all the lumps. Do not overmix.
  • Fold in 1 cup of the blueberries, reserving the rest during the cooking process.
  • Heat a small amount of vegetable oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat. It’s important for the pan to preheat before making your first pancake.
  • With a 1⁄2-cup measuring cup, scoop up some batter and pour it onto the preheated pan, using the cup to spread the batter and shape each pancake to the size you like. Sprinkle each pancake with extra blueberries on top as it cooks. Once lots of bubbles begin to form on the pancakes, in 2 to 3 minutes, flip the pancakes over and cook the other side until light brown.
  • Remove the cooked pancakes from the heat. (To keep the pancakes warm while you’re cooking, you can place the finished ones on a baking sheet in a warm oven set at 200 degrees F.) Repeat step 5 with the remaining batter and blueberries, until all the batter is cooked.
  • Serve immediately and top with any optional toppings.
