Joanne's Dairy-Free Yogurt Pancakes |
My last published post was about Greek yogurt pancakes, and today I made a dairy-free version. BTW I've got a million posts in drafts, so pray I'll publish them soon.
I'm not quite doing a vegan fast, because I'm still having eggs (occasionally) and honey. But I am avoiding dairy and meat. That's an Ovo Vegetarian. If you are looking for vegan pancakes, I have some recipes on my Pinterest Bread, Pancakes, & Pastries board.

The only real difference in this recipe from my Greek yogurt pancake recipe is the yogurt. Instead of Greek yogurt I used vanilla almond yogurt. The pancakes were still fluffy and delicious.
While my pancake batter was setting, I made some veggie sausage from Lightlife Foods. I found it at Whole Foods in the refrigerated section. The Schaumburg, Illinois store didn't have the frozen 365 sausage, but that worked out because I discovered this wonderful company. Lightlife aspires to make delicious plant based proteins without sacrificing the enjoyment people usually get from meat. I look forward to trying more of their products. The veggie sausage was good.

Ready to dig in to those pancakes |
That's a big dab of vegan butter on top of those pancakes. |
With food this good why would anyone miss dairy or meat? |
Yummy! |
My mother isn't a big pancake fan, but she couldn't stop raving about them. |
Dairy free pancakes going quickly |
3/4 cup organic pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1-2 packets Stevia in the Raw (or 1 tablespoon coconut palm sugar)
Pinch of salt (I like to use sea salt from a grinder)
Dash of Cinnamon (to taste)
Wet Ingredients
1 egg (beaten)
3/8 cup Vanilla Almond yogurt (6 tablespoons or 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons)
3/8 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 tablespoon oil (coconut oil or grapeseed oil is great).
Instructions
Sift/combine dry ingredients in one bowl.
In another bowl mix the wet ingredients.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, a little at a time, mixing after each addition.
Once combined let the batter sit for at least 5 minutes. This is a good time to prepare sides and heat the skillet.
Pour the batter in a nonstick or greased griddle to form pancakes.
Cook each side for about 2 minutes.
I served my pancakes with warm pure maple syrup and vegan butter. Please feel free to share your feedback, recipes, and questions.
