But I ask you to do one thing in return: Please, Spread the word, need to know how easy it is to make delicious vegan pancakes!

my experience

I don’t know about you, but I love pancakes.

Frankly, this is my favorite snack always.

So much so that I could make dough with my eyes closed since I was a kid.

So, obviously, when I became a vegetarian, One of the first recipes I tried to make vegetarian.

So, initially, I tested a thousand and one egg substitution tips, which were very important to me in this recipe.

And it’s very troublesome, i always miss my pancakes I’m extremely disappointed every time.

Until one day, I finally wondered if eggs were as important as I thought.

There I unlocked something and the solution was provided to me: What if I don’t replace these damn eggs? become.

this is what i found My recipe uses two ingredients: flour and liquid.

Ta-ta-ta!

I find it makes sense to simplify preparation as much as possible, simplicity is its essence.

Come on, I’ll explain how it works. and stay healthy until the end because i give you My exact recipe.

How to replace eggs?

In fact, when you want to make a vegan dessert, don’t try to randomly swap out the eggs in the first place.

Your method must be Know what role to play egg In your recipe, once you make it, you can try Find alternatives to fill this role.

Eggs can be used for binding, adding softness, thickening, aerating, coloring, and more. Often, they play multiple roles within the same preparation.

and then Sometimes, well, let’s just say, sure, they play a small role, but that’s not required. So, we don’t necessarily have to replace them, we can do without them.

Such is the case with pancakes. The eggs are used for binding and provide softness.

So, softness, we’re going to talk about that again, but for rolling dough, you have to understand how the dough holds together to avoid making dumplings.

Actually, in my version, there’s no big secret, we just need to rely on Gluten viscoelasticity Contains wheat flour. It’s a good adhesive and that’s enough, so we take advantage of it.

Yeah, that’s it, we’re just taking advantage of the binding power of wheat.

How to change milk?

Well, it’s so easy because there are dozens of different plant-based milks that are perfect for the job.

I recommend you listen to my episode dedicated to plant-based milks, the fourth episode of the podcast, to learn more about this topic.

So you just need to choose The plant milk you want Pancakes for you.

You can even have fun experimenting by switching up the plant-based milks each time to find your favorite.

Be aware that classic soy milk or rice milk may be suitable.

But I’m going to reveal to you one of my secrets: for me, best For plant-based pancakes, it’s Homemade Oat Milk.

You can make your own oatmeal by mixing water and rolled oats and then straining the mixture.

So this slightly thicker plant-based milk gives you a really perfect texture and adds really nice flavor.

Because we said before, you remember, eggs provide a soft texture. In fact, by using homemade oat milk, you can add that famous softness.

You see, if you break down a little bit what the ingredients do, it’s pretty simple.

Customize your vegan pancake batter

Well, you see, this recipe is surprisingly simple. That’s why I love him. Apparently, she’s very nice!

But if you want to change the fun, You can make some small additions.

Remember, this is not mandatory. These are just more delicious possibilities.

Come on, I’ll give you some ideas:

• First, I recommend you to use ½ whole wheat flour. It has more flavor than white flour and tastes better. If you only have white flour, that’s okay, but occasionally try using 1/2 whole wheat flour. You will tell me the news.
• Then you can finish your dough 2 tbsp. tablespoon neutral oil or soy yogurtworks on the texture. Using these ingredients, you can maximize softness. We like that, eh!
• Later, for more flavors, just add Sugar and condiments. Think about it Citrus zest, rum, vanilla, cinnamon. In short, have fun!
• Finally, for a lighter texture, replace a small portion of the plant-based milk with beer. If you like thicker pancakes, you can stuff a little bicarbonate Or add some baking powder to the dough, which will ferment slightly when cooked, making it delicious.

To rest the dough or not?

Ahhhh, this question…

So, have you ever wondered why we let pancake batter sit? Well, yes, frankly, why waste time if it’s not going to work?

Well, my advice is: Let the dough rest At least a few minutes. Even, if you can, at least give it a rest 1 hour, perfect dough.

for what? First, it allows the protein in the flour to Drink plenty of water.

The name of this protein is Gluten. It has the ability to form networks when in contact with liquids. This is why wheat flour makes a good binder.

By mixing, the formation of these networks can be accelerated. so, The more you mix, the more the dough sticks together and surprisingly, the more elastic it becomes.

So, a little bit of elasticity is good, but you have to find the balance so you don’t turn into gum. That’s not the goal.

Personally, I use a hand mixer just mixwithout overworking the gluten.

Okay, but I promise you, if your crepe maker is working too much and you feel like the dough is very stretchy, give it a rest. It’s practical: do nothing and over time the elasticity calms down.

Resting, therefore, allows the gluten to fill up with water and form a network. When you’re done using it, you can also let it rest for perfect elasticity.

Well, that said, if you don’t have time to let the dough rest for more than a few minutes, too bad, just go for it anyway.

Yes, we only have one life, one life, all of that, come on!

How to master the skill of making pancakes without adding eggs or milk?

Ah, we’re serious. Cooking is the crux of the matter!

What you already need is suitable pan. I have a cast iron pancake maker, but you could use a simple low-sided nonstick pan and that would be perfect.

So, what’s important is Heat the pot before you start.

The myth of first-time pancake failure exists simply because the pan is often not hot enough or greased enough.

If you want to make sure it turns out great, you need to have a little patience with your first pancake. brilliantly Grease the pan well before pouring in the dough.

Then between each pancake you add a little oil using a cooking brush or a potato cut in half, you know what it is?

For the power of fire, I recommend one Cook over medium-high heat and maintain a constant flame. By the way, if you have the choice, avoid using an electric stove that heats up suddenly, that’s not good.

You may find that finding the ideal temperature may take some time and practice. If you feel like it’s cooking too much or not hot enough, try turning it up or down slightly.

Oh, and don’t panic right away if your pancakes don’t come apart, it might just be undercooked. It should come off easily when one side is cooked. OK?

Okay, then, If you miss the crepe, stay calm, Well, it’s not the end of the world. Try to understand what happened and don’t make the same mistake next time. that’s all.

After all, we make pancakes for fun, don’t forget that!

My super easy pancake recipe

Okay, enough about how it works, you want the recipe?

I give it to you. I encourage you to do this right away because it’s very simple.

That’s it, about fifteen pancakes, you’ll need:

• 250g wheat flour (½ full for me)
• 1 pinch of fine salt (this is just for flavor)
• 500ml plant milk (of your choice)

Then, prepare a little vegetable oil for cooking.

On a practical level, You mix all the ingredients with a blender, let it sit for a while and then cook. that’s all!

Note that the dough will thicken as it rests, and each flour reacts differently, so you may need to adjust the liquid amount slightly. You may be hesitant the first few times, but with practice you’ll know how to recognize the perfect texture, trust yourself.

Well, I don’t know about you, but this story really makes me want to eat pancakes.

So, what do you say, we’re all in trouble, Shall we make pancakes?

I’m sure You have all the ingredients on handthat’s the beauty of this super simple recipe.

So I want you to start immediately. Hey, let’s go to a crepe party!

Come on, delicious pancakes and enjoy!
