Vegan Chocolate Chip Pancakes

These easy Vegan Chocolate Chip Pancakes are an American classic the whole family will love! They are so good they don't even need maple syrup!

If you are like me and love to sneak chocolate into anything and everything, this recipe is for you! Since it's made with pantry staples, you can have it anytime.

How to Make This Recipe

Mix gluten free all purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, ground flax seeds (flax meal), and salt. Add almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Whisk until all the lumps are gone.

Fold chocolate chips into batter. Heat skillet over medium heat. With a tablespoon, spoon 3 tablespoonfuls of batter onto skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form, then flip and cook the other side.

Tips

• If you're using a nonstick pan, you won't need much coconut oil or vegan butter, if any. I like to include some for flavor, but it's not necessary.
• You may want less chocolate chips than I have included.
• The same goes for the maple syrup in the batter. You may want to taste the batter before making the pancakes, but keep in mind that uncooked gluten free all purpose flour tastes very different than cooked.
• Serve pancakes with your favorite berries to add a tart flavor and balance out the sweetness of the pancakes. Maple syrup is optional - the pancakes taste good without it!
