Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons golden syrup
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted and cooled
  • 1 cup gluten free plain flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup dairy-free milk

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, spices and salt and whisk to combine.
  • In another bowl, whisk together egg, golden syrup, coconut oil, vanilla and milk. Add the wet ingredients to dry and whisk until a thick batter forms. Set aside and rest for 10 minutes.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan and lightly spray with oil. Add ¼ cup of batter per pancake to the pan. Once bubbles have formed on the surface, flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter, wiping out excess oil with a paper towel between batches.
  • Serve pancakes with dairy-free butter and a very generous drizzle of maple syrup.

Notes

Pancakes are notorious for burning! To prevent this, make sure to monitor the heat of your pan as you progress. Start with your pan on high and turn down to medium after cooking the first one or two to ensure the pancakes cook evenly as you go.
