There are two types of pancakes: the thin French crepes, and the thicker American-styled pancakes.  Though most people seem to prefer the American styles ones because they're thicker, easier to eat and are usually served with chocolate sauce or fresh fruit and honey!
 Here is a delicious recipe on making American pancakes that are (you guess it!) VEGAN. Use gluten-free flour of your choice and preferably fry on extra virgin olive/coconut oil.
Enjoy!

You will need...

•  2 cups of flour, gluten free of your choice
• 2 tablespoons of organic sugar, preferably coconut blossom "sugar". Use xylitol, honey or stevia at your preferred quantity for a different sweetening method
• 4 tablespoons of baking powder (or bicarbonate of soda and lemon and/or vinegar to dissolve it in)
• 1/4 teaspoon of salt
• 2 cups of dairy-free milk of your choice (click here to review our recipe for delicious, raw vegan almond milk that you can make at home suing just 2-3 ingredients!)
• 4 tablespoons of olive oil or coconut oil. 
• Toppings/fillings of your choice: vanilla extract, cinnamon, fruit, vegan chocolate chips o half a mashed banana to vary the flavour. 

1. Set a pan on medium heat, with the oil to slowly heat it up.
2. Combine all the ingredients together and cream/mix thoroughly. 
3. Pour in a pancake's worth of batter onto the pan (a medium sized pancake would perhaps be 3-4 tablespoons of batter) and let cook slowly.
4. Once the edges of each look for more firm and light, small bubbles start appearing in the middle, carefully flip the pancake around to now cook the opposite side.
5. Use the remaining batter for the pancakes and top with desired ingredients wen ready.
6. Enjoy!
