This is probably my favorite recipe to make on my blog. My son LOVES pancakes! He loves the store bought packaged ones, specifically this kind. But I am a mom and us moms’ want what? We want our kids to eat healthy, right? Well, after trying a plethora of vegan pancake recipes that I found online, that my son didn’t like, I decided to come up with my own recipe. So you can stop endlessly scouring the internet for the perfect vegan pancake recipe, because I have created it for you, and HERE IT IS…

Seriously, If you choose to make only one recipe from my blog, please choose this one! I made these healthy, simple to make, yummy enough for kids to request them often, and budget friendly. I do try my best to make each recipe on my blog include all of these categories, but it’s not always possible. I am proud to say this recipe for very vanilla vegan chia seed pancakes fits into ALL these categories, the most important one being my son thinks they are “yummy..” I call that a win for team kid.

He LOVES these pancakes! And so do !! Why? well, for one, it only requires using one bowl to make it. This means there aren’t many dishes to wash afterwards. That’s a win for team mom.

Recipe Directions

Simply whisk all the wet ingredients together in the skillet and then pour them into the dry ingredients (aka your ONE bowl)..

Next, use a spatula to combine the wet and dry ingredients. The mixture will quickly start to form a thick pancake batter. Then you are ready to scoop the batter into a heated skillet.

You will know it is ready to flip when the edges are bubbling and beginning to look golden brown.

Is that simple, or what? These vegan chia seed pancakes are perfectly fluffy and golden. They have no added sugar. All you need is one bowl and a handful of ingredients to make them. And they are soooooo good! Top them with some homemade jam and you have a super healthy, vegan homemade breakfast made in under thirty minutes, using only one bowl (not to mention, there will be plenty of leftovers that can be reheated throughout the week for a quick breakfast). It’s the recipe that keeps on giving.

Make a large batch of these pancakes over the weekend, then freeze them to use throughout the week, for a quick breakfast. This hack is a life saver to me because my child always wants something cooked for breakfast and I don’t always have time in the morning. He isn’t a fan of cereal or yogurt and I’m not a fan of boxed frozen waffles, because they don’t offer as much health as I would like to see him eat in the morning. If you struggle with similar issues, use this recipe for vegan chia seed pancakes to make your life as a mom a little easier.
