How to Make Vegan Blueberry Pancakes

Step 1: First, use a large mixing bowl to mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 2: Next, add the plant milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and mashed banana. Then mix until the batter becomes well-blended.

Step 3: After mixing, fold the berries into the batter until evenly distributed.

Step 4: Next, scoop out large spoonfuls of batter onto a lightly oiled pan under medium-high heat. Once bubbles start to form on top, flip the pancakes and cook until slightly browned. Then do the same with the rest of the batter. Finally, add your favorite toppings and serve while warm!

Toni’s Recipe Tips for Vegan Blueberry Pancakes

  • Do not overmix your batter: or you will have flat and chewy pancakes. Mix until no visible dry spots are left, though a few small lumps are okay.
  • Do not flip the pancakes too early: or you will be eating deformed, unevenly cooked pancakes instead of perfectly golden round ones. The bubbles will guide you! Gently flip them over once they form and the edges begin to brown.
  • Let the batter rest: If you have extra time on your hands, rest the batter for a few minutes to let the gluten relax resulting in softer pancakes.
  • If you do not have a griddle, use a skillet or heavy-bottomed pan. Make sure that the oil is also hot before cooking the pancakes to achieve that crisp-around-the-edges perfection! Test it with a small pancake first, so you know if the pan and oil are hot enough.
  • Cooking in batches? Turn your oven on and place your cooked blueberry pancakes there to keep them warm until you are ready to serve!

FAQs for Eggless Blueberry Pancakes

What should be the consistency of the pancake batter?

It does not have to be very smooth, but you should be able to easily pour it. Take note that the pancake batter should not be runny. If it is, then add more flour to thicken it.

Why are my pancakes not fluffy?

There can be two reasons for this. First, it is possible that the batter was overmixed. Second, you could be using old baking powder that is not active anymore.

Why are my pancakes burnt on the outside but raw inside?

This means that your pan and oil are too hot, or the pan you used is too thin at the bottom. Always use a test pancake by dropping a small dollop on the pan to check if the temperature is correct.

Topping & Serving Suggestions

How to Store Blueberry Pancakes

Make Ahead: You can make the batter ahead of time and keep it in the fridge for 2 to 3 days. However, note that the baking soda activates once added with wet ingredients and loses its effectiveness the longer you store the batter. So the texture will not be the same.

Fridge: You can also store cooked pancakes in the fridge for 5 days.

Freezer: Store leftover pancakes or meal prep pancakes, but freezing for a month. Pancakes should be stacked with a sheet of baking paper in between and wrapped in a freezer-safe bag or foil. You might also put them in separate storage bags.

  1. Hi, I usually use chia seeds for the egg replacer, can I add chia seeds as well and how much without changing the texture? I usually add 1 lg banana and 1 T chia and 3T water. Thanks

    1. Hi! You don’t need to add the full chia seed egg mixture into this recipe for the pancakes to turn out! We at Plant-Based on a Budget haven’t tried that out yet so we can’t guarantee the results, though if you would like to add some chia seeds, a generous sprinkle should be okay! Let us know how it turns out if you give it a go! 🙂
