You are going to love these Deliciously Fluffy Vegan Maple Syrup Pancakes. They are so sweet, delicate, fluffy, soft, and delicious! What’s better than maple syrup on pancakes? Adding maple syrup in the pancakes as well!
This recipe is great for a lazy breakfast in bed during the weekend. Your husband could make them and bring them to you to bed (like in my case!), you can make them yourself, or why not get the kids to help? They’ll surely have fun!
We make these pancakes oil-free and they taste amazing. No need at all for oil. Just make sure you’re cooking them in a non-stick pancake pan!
These pancakes can be made gluten-free by adding all-purpose gluten-free flour and a bit of xanthan gum, or regular, using spelt flour or all-purpose flour (we prefer them with spelt flour!).
