Pecan Pancakes

We love pancakes. I tried a few recipes, but we were a little disappointed. One day we went to our local restaurant "Kerbey Lane Cafe" which featured a cinnamon pecan vegan pancake. It was pretty good, I was inspired. So I went home and flipped through some books but nobody had any. I found a recipe that seemed somewhat close to a basic pancake in the cook book "Happy Herbivore". I got to work playing around and altering the recipes until I came up with this winner!

Mix the dry ingredients 

Combine the liquid ingredients

Chop the pecans

Mix it all together and let it set while you heat the pan; it then gets all light and fluffy

Cook, flip, cook

Enjoy

Ingredients


2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 tbs baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbs brown sugar (not packed)
2 cups plain non dairy milk (I like almond or soy)
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup pecans (pre chopped)

Directions


  • In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients (flour-sugar).
  • In a separate bowl mix the wet ingredients (milk-vanilla).
  • Chop the pecans.
  • Add the pecans and the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk together. 
  • Let the pancakes set while you heat your pan. 
  • Once heated, cook the pancakes on medium heat and flip once as needed.
