Prep time: 10 minutes

Yields: 4–6 servings

Ingredients:

  • 1 large egg.
  • 1⅕ cups plant-based milk, oat, almond or soy.
  • ¼ cup maple syrup.
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar or brown sugar.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  • 1 cup almond flour.
  • 1 cup brown rice flour.
  • ¼ cup buckwheat flour.
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder.
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda.
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt.
  • A pinch of cinnamon.
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil, melted.

Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease with melted coconut oil.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and coconut sugar.
  • In another bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.
  • Mix wet and dry ingredients, add melted coconut oil.
  • Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 5–7 minutes for plain pancakes or 8–10 minutes if adding fruit or other toppings.
  • The pancakes are ready when they feel springy to the touch and a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with a few dry crumbs.
  • The top may caramelize slightly depending on the oven.

Pro-Tips:

  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before baking, for fluffier results.
  • Serve with fresh fruit, maple syrup, or your favorite toppings.
  • Can be frozen and reheated in the toaster.
  • Wet toppings such as fresh fruit will increase the cooking time.
  • Allow to cool slightly before slicing into squares.
