Delicious vegan whole wheat pancakes paired with a creamy lemon cashew ricotta. These pancakes are fluffy, wholesome, and bursting with flavor. Perfect for a weekend breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients: 1 cup whole wheat flour. 1 tablespoon sugar. 1 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1 cup almond milk or any plant-based milk. 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar. 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal. 6 tablespoons water. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. For Lemon Cashew Ricotta:. 1 cup raw cashews soaked in hot water for 1 hour. 2 tablespoons lemon juice. 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast. 1 clove garlic, minced. Salt and pepper to taste. Water, as needed.
Instructions: In a small bowl, mix the flaxseed meal and water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken and create a flax 'egg.' In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, combine the almond milk, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil. Add the flax 'egg' and mix well. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with oil or cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown. For the Lemon Cashew Ricotta, drain and rinse the soaked cashews. In a blender or food processor, combine the cashews, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth, adding water as needed to achieve the desired consistency. Serve the pancakes with a dollop of Lemon Cashew Ricotta on top. Enjoy!
