Pancakes are great. Light, fluffy, and delicious. A great way to start the day (unless you’re having them for lunch or dinner; I won’t judge). Whether you like them with fruit, syrup or lemon juice, the possibilities are endless. My firm favourite is, most definitely, lemon juice and sugar. But its really up to you!

Buttermilk, as you can guess, is not vegan. But it’s really simple to make your own! Just mix plant milk (cheap milks work best, try using own brand soy!) and add the apple cider vinegar (this works best, but you could use lemon juice) and let it curdle! Depending on the quality of your milk, it could take up to half an hour. You want a thick, creamy liquid, or one with blobs of curdled milk if you haven’t stirred it. It doesn’t sound very appealing, but it gives you a great rise to your pancakes. Check out my cupcake recipe if you like this technique!
