These dairy free pancakes are the perfect weekend breakfast – light and fluffy, simple and delicious – without milk or butter!  This easy recipe has simple non-dairy swaps, and takes just as good as traditional pancakes.

These pancakes are great for a dairy-free diet, or if you just want pancakes but don’t have any milk or butter on hand. Serve these pancakes with real maple syrup, powdered sugar, or a big side of fruit salad.

It’s a beautiful weekend here, and nothing better than starting our day with a hot stack of dairy free pancakes!  These pancakes are great for anyone following a strict dairy free diet, or just if (like me) you don’t keep milk or butter stocked in the fridge.
 
These pancakes have some simple swaps for dairy items, so you still get delicious flavor and fluffiness from your pancakes!  We enjoyed these pancakes with some fresh maple syrup that we made ourselves – from tapping our maple trees this year.  However, any syrup you have works just fine 😉

These Dairy Free Pancakes Are:

  • Fluffy
  • Airy
  • Light
  • Flavorful
  • Not-too-sweet
  • Ready in about 15 minutes
  • Great to serve as a brunch entrée or for a pancake bar

Make These Pancakes with Store-bought or Homemade Almond Milk

You can absolutely use a store-bought almond milk, or you can easily make it yourself.  All you need is almonds, water, a strainer, and a blender. Blend 2 tablespoons of almonds with 2 cups water for 3 minutes, then strain out any almond pulp! Either way, fluffy and delicious almond milk pancakes are coming your way.

How Do I Make These Pancakes without Milk or Butter?

  1. Mix all ingredients in a bowl, stir well to ensure there are no lumps in the batter. Grease a large frying pan or griddle.
  2. Add 1/4 cup of batter to the pan for each pancake and cook over low heat. When little bubbles form around the pancakes (around 6 or 7 minutes on my stovetop), flip and cook for a few minutes on the second side until golden brown.
  3. Stack, drizzle with maple syrup, and serve with fresh fruit.
