Q&A for How to Make Pancakes Without Eggs or Milk

Powdered milk is different than non-dairy because it still has dairy, but you can use it.

It will be pretty much the same time frame as a normal pancake although these may need to cook for a few additional seconds on each side.

Yes, you can add cinnamon on top of the batter after spreading it on the pan.

No. Baking powder contains a portion of baking soda, cream of tartar (acid), and cornstarch. They cannot be used interchangeably.

You have to.

All purpose. You don't want your pancakes rising too high.

No, baking soda will cause the pancakes to rise too much and give them an odd flavor.

Lower the heat of the pan, and make sure your batter isn't too thick. It might also help to press down on the pancake with the spatula while cooking.

Yes, but it might affect the taste and final consistency of the pancakes.

No. It won't dissolve like the sugar and it will become blocky.

No. Use baking powder. Baking soda will ruin the pancakes. They’ll rise too much and taste terrible.

Add everything except the flour, then start adding flour bit by bit as you're mixing it. When it starts thickening, stop adding flour until all the bubbled flour is gone and the consistency is smooth.

No, I don't recommend it. The baking powder will help your pancakes to rise and get the lightness you usually want from a pancake.

Make up the powdered milk so it is the same amount as normal milk. Store for 10-15 minutes in a cold fridge. Then take out and mix as in the instructions above.

You don't have to, but not adding it will result in pancakes that are savory rather than sweet.

Yes, you can. There is no butter added to the batter. However, butter is added to the pan to prevent the pancakes from sticking. This can also be replaced with oil or non-stick cooking spray if you don't have butter on hand or would rather not use it.

This depends on how thick you want the batter to be. For typical pancake batter, you'll want to add about a cup. Gradually stir the liquid into the batter until you get the right consistency for your recipe.

Add a sweet topping to decrease bad taste. Try using a sugar and cinnamon mixture with bananas and berries. Next time, change the non-dairy milk to one that is blander, like oat milk, as this may improve the flavor.

Keep it on low or medium; you don't want to rush it or end up having a burnt pancake.
