Fluffy Vegan Blueberry Quinoa Pancakes

The fluffiest blueberry quinoa pancakes made with nutritious, whole-grain flours and without any dairy, eggs or gluten. Perfect to serve for brunch!

 

I just got back from spending a week at my parent's house in Vermont, which was as wonderful as ever. I'm always well-fed, we have lots of hang out sessions by the fire and walks in the woods, but it's our weekend morning routines I love the most.

The dogs wake up early, so that means I'm out of my early too, but then we spend all morning just hanging out. We read the paper, drink our tea + coffee and always have blueberry pancakes. On Saturday I didn't get out of my pjs until noon. It was magnificent.

I think that's why blueberry pancakes hold such a special place in my heart. There's almost nothing I'd rather do than spend a lazy morning weekend with the people I love most eating a big stack of homemade blueberry pancakes (drizzled in a generous helping of pure maple syrup, of course).

(vegan!) Blueberry Quinoa Pancakes -- healthy, delicious and SO FLUFFY!

These vegan blueberry pancakes are my newest go-to recipe. I've been making the same quinoa pancake recipe forever now but just recently made one teeny tweak that changed the whole texture of the pancakes.

They went from being light and tender to the fluffiest cakes I've ever tried. The secret? Coconut flour.

Love these fluffy QUINOA PANCAKES studded with fresh blueberries and drizzled in warm maple syrup. They're the ULTIMATE breakfast treat!

I don't bake much with coconut flour these days because it usually requires a ton of eggs (which I'm not eating very often these days), but what I've realized is that when you use it in small amounts it can add AH-MAZING texture!

With the pancakes, it's the ingredient that makes them the best pancakes I've ever tasted. They're ultra fluffy, but also moist and tender. They soak up the maple syrup but don't fall apart when you cut into them with your fork.

AND they don't need any weird binders. Just simple, whole-grain goodness with all the flavor and none of the junk.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat a griddle over medium heat.
  • Whisk together the flax and water and set aside to gel.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder and salt.
  • Beat together the flax eggs, milk, oil and syrup then pour into the dry and mix until a smooth batter forms. Fold in the blueberries.
  • Lightly grease your griddle with nonstick cooking spray or coconut oil. Ladle ¼ cup of batter onto the griddle and repeat until you have filled your pan. Cook the pancakes until small bubbles begin to form around the edges, about 2 - 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1 - 2 minutes longer until the other sides are golden brown. Repeat until no batter remains.
  • Serve warm with fresh berries (or fruit of choice) and pure maple syrup.
