Vegan Red Velvet Pancake Cereal

Mini pancakes made with homemade vegan red velvet batter.
Prep Time 7 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Servings 2

Ingredients

  • 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 and 1/4 cups dairy free milk almond or soy work well
  • 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 1 and 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp red gel food coloring
  • coconut oil for cooking

Instructions

  • Pour milk and apple cider vinegar in a large drinking glass or jar and set aside for 5 minutes to create a vegan buttermilk.
  • Whisk together the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  • Add the vegan buttermilk and whisk until combined.
  • Now add the red food coloring and mix until fully incorporated to give a red batter.
  • Add a splash of milk if needed to ensure a smooth and pourable batter.
  • Carefully pour batter into a squeeze bottle or piping bag.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle to medium-low. Lightly grease with coconut oil.
  • Squeeze mini pancakes (about the size of a nickel) onto the hot surface of the skillet.
  • Let the pancakes cook for 30-45 seconds until small bubbles form on the top. Then flip and cook on the other side for another 30 seconds until the pancakes are cooked through.
  • Repeat with leftover batter.
  • Serve with milk, your favorite toppings, and syrup!

Notes

I found it easiest to use the back of a small spatula and butter knife to flip the pancakes. It also helps to not overcrowd the skillet.
Leftover batter can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. 
Leftover pancakes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, and reheated before eating. 
Doubling the recipe to serve more people works well!
