We have a kid that is lactose free, so we are always looking for ways to either make things without milk at all, or using a lactose free substitute.

Makes 15 - 20 pancakes, depending on how thin you make the batter. We like ours thicker, I got 16 pancakes, which meant for the 5 of us, we had 2 pancakes left over.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 7 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt (or just a shake)
  • 4 Tbsp sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 6 Tbsp margarine, melted
  • 3 tsp vanilla
  • 2 ½ cups water

Directions

  • In a large bowl, sift together the 3 cups of flour, 7 tsp of baking powder, salt, and 3 Tbsp of sugar.

  • Make a well in the middle, and pour in 2 eggs, 6 Tbsp melted margarine, and 2 tsp vanilla.

  • Pour in 1 cup of water and begin stirring together with a whisk.

  • Slowly add more water while whisking until you have all the lumps out of it, and add water to your desired consistency.

  • If you have addins like mashed bananas and chocolate chips, now is the time to add them. I’ve easily added 2 mashed bananas to this recipe without issue.

  • Lightly grease a frying pan (neutral oil spread with paper towel will work), and heat to medium high.

  • Pour a large spoonful of batter on, and wait for bubbles to form before flipping.
