These pancakes are vegan, gluten and sugar-free and it’s the best pancakes recipe I’ve ever tried, it’s so awesome and really easy to make.
This is a healthy version of pancakes with less cholesterol and fat than other recipes, but it tastes amazing, you’re gonna love it. We eat these pancakes with sliced banana and agave syrup, it’s our favorite topping!
We usually use bananas or applesauce instead of eggs in our sweet vegan recipes, but you can also use flax eggs or chia seeds. We like bananas and apple sauce because they are cheap and so easy to get, but we’ll share with you recipes using other alternatives.
We’ve used soy milk, but you can also use other plant milk and you can make you own milk, it’s cheaper, healthier and it tastes amazing. You can make almond milk following our recipe, it’s quick and easy!
These pancakes are gluten-free because we’ve used rice and oat flour instead of wheat flour. You can find rice flour in many supermarkets and grocery stores, and we make our oat flour grinding oats, but you can buy it too.
Although you can use other kind of flour, maybe you should add more or less milk, but your pancakes will be awesome too!
We love agave syrup, it’s a great and healthy sugar substitute, but you can use honey (if you’re not vegan), maple syrup, sugar or whatever sweetener you like. You can try the batter because it’s egg-free and you can add more sweetener if you want.
I really love vanilla flavor, that’s why I use vanilla extract in almost all my sweet recipes, but I only use homemade vanilla extract, it’s really easy to make and soooo cheap. Vanilla extract is optional, so you don’t have to use it if you don’t want to.
You’re gonna love these pancakes because they are soft, fluffy, sweet, healthy and your kitchen is gonna smell like heaven, but be careful, they are addictive and you’ll always want more!

ended up using stevia and almond milk. a bit dodgy on the flip, but worth it. I didnt blend the banana, only smushed them up with a fork. still really good.

Hi Laura! So glad you enjoyed it 🙂 Thanks for your comment!
I love this recipe! Thanks!
Hi Elly! Thank YOU 🙂 Have a nice day!
I am making them as we speak – just flipped the first one – with half gluten-free all-purpose flour and half almond flour. Also, maple syrup instead of agave. Consistency and cook looks great! Let’s see how they taste 🙂
Aaaaand they’re delicious! Fluffy, not gooey, and excellent flavor (maybe it helped that I accidentally doubled the salt and cinnamon :-). Thanks so much for this excellent recipe!

Hi Natalia! I’m so glad you liked them 🙂
Best recipe I have come across for making eggless pancakes. We substitute coconut milk for the soy milk and have used about 1/2- 3/4 cup of applesauce when we don’t have bananas in the house. We also add a tablespoon on ground chia seeds (soaked in a couple tablespoons of water before adding). Kid favorite.

Hi Matt! Sounds great 🙂 So glad you liked them!
I’d love to have options withgluten free flours that can be made at home for this recipe
What is yours fir the oat flour?
Hi AJ! I’ve only made this recipe using gf oat flour and rice flour, but you could try using buckwheat or brown rice flour instead…
Can I substitute banana and almond flour for the 2 flours in the recipe?
Hi Debbie! I’ve never made this recipe using almond flour, so I don’t know. And you need to use banana or something similar instead like applesauce, pumpkin puree or flax eggs. Have a nice day!
Looks lovely, I plan to make tomorrow for breakfast – I have a reaction to gluten free oats, to get that thick pancake could I do a rice flour & self raising white flour blend, or if I find millet or buckwheat flour I could use that instead of the self raising (but would it taste a bit odd?)
Thank you :))
Hi Ella! I’ve never tried it myself, but I would use buckwheat or brown rice flour instead, they’re my favorite gluten-free flours and they work great. You could also use rice flour and self raising white flour, I think it should work… Hope it helps!
thanks for the recipe, I’ll give its. go…. oats are not gluten free though unless you use gluten free, so its quite miss leading…. maybe this should be adjusted to say wheat free or change to gluten free oats.
Hi Laura! Oats are gluten-free: http://www.cureceliacdisease.org/faq/do-oats-contain-gluten/ Have a nice day!
Have you ever tired this recipe with banana flour? I have some banana flour and wondered if this would work? Thanks for a great website and recipes!
Hi Ruth! I’ve never tried banana flour, so I can’t help you, sorry!
Hi there,
This is a fantastic recipe Vegan GF Pancakes!
I would love to feature it in our website, Greenthickies. I will not be posting the actual recipe, but will only use one image from the post and a small quote and link directly back to the original post in your site.
Will that be all right?
Thanks a lot :),

P.S. I did read your FAQ but I thought I’d ask you anyways 🙂
Hi Katherine! Thanks for asking 🙂 Yes, you can share it. Have a nice day!
I don’t know yet but it is looking pretty good.
So far!!!
Thanks for your wonderful recipe.
Hi Catrina! You’re so welcome 😉
These look delicious! Will definitely have to give them a try real soon!
Hi Christie! Thanks a lot 😀 Hope you enjoy them!
Thank you for this recipe! I’ve made tons of different gf/vegan pancakes over the years for my allergic family and this one is definitely a keeper. Light and fluffy, perfect crispy edges, delicious taste. I subbed my gf flour mix, added hemp seeds, and used maple syrup instead. Everyone very happy!
