Chickpea Flour Pancakes

Total Time 30 minutes
Servings: 10 pancakes
Course: Breakfast, Brunch

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 ½ cup chickpea flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg (can sub flax egg for vegan compliant)
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • ¼ cup monk fruit sweetener or coconut sugar
  • 1 cup vanilla almond milk
  • 1 tsp white distilled vinegar 

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, combine almond milk and vinegar together in a bowl and allow to sit for 5-7 minutes.
  2. While you wait, in two separate bowls combine all of the wet ingredients and the dry ingredients. Whisk each bowl together until combined.
  3. Pour the milk and vinegar mixture into your wet ingredients and mix to combine.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into your dry ingredients and mix together until smooth.
  5. Allow the batter to sit for 10 minutes while you heat a greased (I recommend using coconut oil or avocado oil) skillet or pancake griddle to medium heat. Do not pour the batter onto the skillet/griddle until it is hot or else to pancakes will be fairly flat.
  6. Once hot, pour ¼-⅓ cup of batter onto the skillet/griddle and cook for a few minutes. Once the pancakes start to form bubbles, check to see if they are ready to flip.
  7. Flip all pancakes until both sides are golden or once they have reached your desired doneness.Serve with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Notes

  • If you’d like, you can make the batter ahead of time and refrigerate overnight. This will actually help create fluffy pancakes, just be sure to gently whisky the batter before using.
  • Ensuring that your skillet/griddle is heated before pouring on the batter will help to create fluffier pancakes while a cold surface will create flat pancakes.
  • To make this recipe vegan, feel free to use a flax egg.
  • Please note that subbing different flours can cause for the pancakes to turn out very different. If you do choose to use a different flour in place of the chickpea flour, please be sure to check the ratio of the measurements for best results.
