This is a quick brunch staple in my house. These vegan "pancakes" are baked on one sheet pan, then all you need to do is slice and serve! Top them with a homemade jam that takes less than 20 minutes to make and you'll be in breakfast heaven.
150grams all purpose flour (OR 180 grams oat flour if you are gf), about 1 cup, packed
1/2 tspbaking powder
1/2 tspcinnamon
1/2cupmelted vegan butter, I like Country Crock plant-based!
1/2cupmaple syrup
1/2cupplant milk of choice
1pinchsalt
For the lemon cherry jam
2cupsfrozen cherries
1tbsplemon zest
Juice from 1 lemon
1/2tbspmaple syrup
2tbsp water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350F.
In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, maple syrup and almond milk. Set aside.
In a larger bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and fold into a smooth batter.
On a parchment lined rimmed baking sheet (very important that it has a rim!) spread the batter out into an even, thin layer. It should be a little bit less than 1 cm thick.
Bake at 350F for about 15-18 minutes.
While the pancakes are baking, mix together the cherries, lemon juice, lemon zest and maple syrup in a large bowl.
Put a skillet on medium heat and add the cherry mixture. Pour in the 2 tbsp of water. Cook and stir until the cherries begin to cook down. Use a wooden spoon to smash up the cherries as you cook. In about 10-15 minutes it should turn into a thick, jammy texture.
Turn off the heat and set the cherry jam aside.
Take the sheet pan pancakes out of the oven and slice into 8 (or 16) square pieces.
Stack up the pancakes while layering in some of your jam. Top with an optional whipped topping and lemon zest, and serve warm!
