Vegan Lemon Pancakes

"There's no better way to wake up a camp full of groggy revelers than some lemony pancakes. They taste best with a little playa dust, but work just as well at home! The key to this recipe is to stir the batter as little as possible (hence the less than 20 turns). The lemon and baking soda react to create air bubbles (remember making a volcano in grade school) and stirring too much will break down the bubbles and give you flat, chewy pancakes. If you don't have a lemon you can substitute 1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar. You'll lose the wonderful lemon scent, but the chemistry will still work."

  1. These were good, but not great. I added less milk because of the runny comment, and the consistancy was good. I didn't taste much lemon though, even after adding some lemon extract too. I may try again.
     
  2. I read the other comments and I'm curious about how the second women got hers so thick and fluffy?? I liked them but they were rather thin and the batter was bit runny. I will try them again and use less soy milk. I used fat free which is thinner then regular, maybe that was my problem.
     
  3. Excellent, i used almond milk instead of soy milk. They were so good ! Thank you very much, we ate them with nutella, but the best is with butter and maple syrup ! Merci. I made the batter on the evening, i put it in a jar in the fridge, and baked the pancakes the next morning.
     
  4. I really enjoyed these, I did make two forced submissions regular milk for the soya and no lemon zest. I was worried how they would turn out as the batter was very thick but they were thick and soft and very satisfyingly stuck to the roof of your mouth when you ate them. I served them with salted butter, grilled bananas and maple syrup but next time im going to add the lemon zest and try marinated tofu, sauteed mushrooms or cream cheese. thanks for a great recipe!
