Pancake Recipe without Eggs
Description
To make these eggless pancakes, the batter is mixed gently until smooth and allowed to rest for at least 30 minutes, which helps improve texture without toughness. Cooking involves a lightly oiled non-stick or crêpe pan heated to medium-high. The batter is poured and swirled to form an even layer that cooks until the surface dulls and the edges start separating from the pan.
Flipping the pancakes requires confidence and careful sliding of a spatula around the edges to loosen before turning. Once flipped, the underside develops browned spots. These pancakes have a soft crumb and mild flavor that can be enjoyed plain or with toppings of choice.
To keep them warm, stacked pancakes can be wrapped in foil or kept on a warm plate over simmering water. The recipe notes advise re-oiling the pan as needed for consistent cooking and emphasize not over-mixing to prevent toughness.
Ingredients
- 150 grams self-raising flour
- 150 millilitre milk or 388g if you prefer to weigh it
- 150 millilitre water
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- vegetable oil you can also use sunflower, olive or coconut oil, a dash, for the frying pan
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients for the eggless pancakes in a large bowl.
- Use an electric hand mixer to blend until smooth, being careful not to over-mix, which can make the pancakes tough. The consistency of the batter will be that of thick cream.
- Allow the pancake batter to rest for a minimum of 30 minutes.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and add a little oil. Use kitchen paper to spread the oil evenly across the pan's surface.Keep the oiled kitchen paper to use again when you need to re-oil the pan later.
- Pour a ladleful of pancake batter into the hot pan. Quickly swirl it around to coat the surface evenly.Tip: Different flours react differently, so if you find your batter is too thin, you can safely add another spoonful of flour and mix well again.
- Cook for about 1.5 to 2 minutes or until the pancake's surface looks dull and isn't shiny anymore. It should also start pulling away from the sides of the pan.
- Alternatively, you can check the underside of the pancake to make sure there are a few browned spots before flipping it over.If the pancakes are browning too quickly, reduce the heat to medium or lower if needed.
- Carefully flip the pancake over with a spatula and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the underside turns light golden in colour.
- Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate and cover it with foil or a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm while you cook the remaining pancakes.If the pancakes start to stick, use the oiled kitchen paper to wipe the pan again.
- Enjoy your hot, freshly baked pancakes with your favourite fillings.
Notes
- Resting the batter for 30 minutes improves texture and results in tender pancakes.
- Use a good quality non-stick or crêpe pan and apply oil evenly with oiled kitchen paper for best results.
- Flip pancakes confidently after edges lift and surfaces dull to avoid tearing.
- Keep cooked pancakes warm by wrapping them in foil or placing them on a plate over simmering water.
