These fluffy Vegan Chocolate Chip Pancakes are studded with sweet cherries, a perfect summer breakfast. Chocolate and cherries go so well together, one of my favourite flavour combos.
I even topped these pancakes off with some melted chocolate and more cherries. Can’t ever go wrong with that right?!
You can also top them with my Cherry Chia jam they go great together!
So happy that it is cherry season here in Spain, they are so sweet and affordable. I bought A LOT of cherries at the farmers market so I hope you are ready for more cherry recipes coming your way.
Ingredients needed to make these Vegan chocolate chip pancakes with cherries:
- Almond milk
- Apple cider vinegar
- Maple syrup or honey
- Vanilla paste
- All purpose flour
- Baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- Cherries, pitted and chopped
- Chocolate chips
- Coconut oil for cooking
- opional, cherries and meled chocolate for serving
Making the pancake batter from scratch is really easy. Only a few key points to remember. It is really important that you leave the almond milk to sit with the vinegar. It reacts with the milk that curdles, leaving a buttermilk like result. So don’t be alarmed when it separates and goes lumpy, thats what you want!
Gently combine the ingredients and be careful not to over mix the pancake batter.
Leaving the batter to rest for 5 minutes before frying them is also an important step in creating fluffy vegan pancakes. It allows the baking powder to activate, just be carful not to let the batter sit too long or you will end up with flat pancakes. And you don’t want that!!
