Vegan Pancakes with Einkorn Flour: Easy Recipe

Vegan pancakes with Einkorn Flour need no eggs or dairy: almond milk, maple syrup and melted coconut oil do the binding, and baking powder does the lifting. Mix the dry and wet ingredients separately, rest the batter for 15 minutes, then cook on a hot oiled pan. They come out fluffy, mildly vanilla-flavoured and not too sweet.

Here is my all-in-one recipe for fluffy and soft pancakes: quite easy to prepare, nutritious and, vegan-friendly.

Ingredients for an easy pancake recipe

Einkorn flour 2 cups (240 g)
Baking powder 4 tbsp.
Pinch of salt
Vanilla 1 tbsp.
Maple syrup 2 tbsp. (100% organic)
Almond milk 2 cups (500 ml)
Coconut oil 4 tbsp. (Use in the melted state)

Instructions to make Delicious Vegan Einkorn Flour pancakes

Take a mixing bowl and add 2 cups (240 g) of einkorn flour (freshly ground preferred), 4 tablespoons of baking powder, and a pinch of salt to it. In short, mix all the dry ingredients. Baking powder will make your pancakes light, airy, and super soft.
Take another bowl, add in the almond milk, maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Then thoroughly mix all the wet ingredients.
Now perfectly blend dry and the wet ingredients.
Allow the mixture to rest for some time. Meanwhile, turn on the flame and let your pan heat up. Using a brush, lightly coat the pan in oil. Make your best vegan-friendly pancakes and serve them with the toppings of your choice.

Successful tips and tricks

Accurately weigh all the required ingredients.
You can pass the dry ingredients through a sieve to make a smooth batter.
Use baking soda that you bought 4 to 5 months back. Too old baking soda will not give the required fluffiness. This shows that the quality of your ingredients matters a lot in preparing perfect pancakes.
Avoid over-mixing your batter otherwise, pancakes will have a chewy texture.
Don’t prepare your pancakes immediately after blending the ingredients. Set aside the mixture for 15 minutes. This will enhance the fluffiness of your pancakes.
Use a non-stick pan with a deep bottom. A too-thin pan will not work best for this recipe.
Toss the pancake with a thin spatula. To avoid smearing the pancake, raise it 2 inches (5 cm) above the pan and turn it quickly. This tip will end in round and smooth vegan pancakes.

FAQs

How do you store einkorn pancakes?

The pancakes can be stored in a freezer for a month. You can put your pancakes in a plastic bag that will maintain their quality for longer. In case you don’t want to freeze the leftover pancakes, then you can store pancakes for 2 days in a refrigerator.

How do you reheat frozen vegan pancakes?

The frozen pancakes can be heated in a microwave. The duration for heating pancakes can be up to 20 seconds for each side.

Why is milk added to the pancakes?

Milk is added to improve the spreading ability of the batter on the hot pan. It makes your batter less dense and also dissolves other ingredients easily.

When should you flip the pancake?

The best time to flip pancakes is when the bubbles start to pop on the top. You will see visible holes on the surface which will indicate that now it’s time to flip. If you can’t see the holes, it means the uncooked batter is still present inside. A change in the colour and texture will also give an indication of the endpoint.

Why didn’t my pancakes get fluffy?

The timing to prepare pancake batter is the key to a successful recipe. Always prepare your batter just before making pancakes. If you mix dry and wet ingredients the night before, it will end up making your pancakes stiff. The one thing you can do is, mix the dry and wet ingredients and store them separately. This will save your time as well as the recipe.

What is einkorn flour?

Einkorn flour is a highly nutritious flour with high protein content. It was used by the ancient people. Its flavour is unique. The best part is that this grain is pure as humans didn’t bring any changes in the genetic makeup of the grain. It is freshly ground and used in pancakes. The replacement of einkorn flour adds extra nutrition to your pancakes, making it a nourishing option for your kids.

What are the benefits of replacing wheat flour with einkorn flour in the pancakes recipe?

Wheat flour has been bred and changed a great deal over time, so einkorn flour appeals to people who want an older, less modified grain. Einkorn pancakes are easily digested and make you feel light. Einkorn is not gluten free, so it is not suitable if you are coeliac, and if you have a gluten allergy or sensitivity you should check with your doctor before trying it.

What’s the taste of einkorn flour?

The einkorn flour and the wheat flour are comparable in terms of taste, but einkorn flour makes your dish richer in flavour, giving it a nutty and crispy texture. That’s why the use of einkorn flour in a warm dish like vegan pancakes makes the recipe more unique and tasty.
