Flaxseed Pancakes are quick and simple, great for a breakfast treat! Includes flaxseed, which contains omega-3 and is a great source of fiber.

I recently shared a recipe for vegan pancakes using dairy-free milk. This recipe contains no milk, including dairy-free–but does include a flax egg! I love using flax eggs in baking recipes because they make the treat so light and fluffy.

These pancakes puff up nicely and are so delicious you won’t even miss the eggs or dairy!

    Looks really good, I didn’t even think of using a flax egg for pancakes until I saw this. Do you think the baking powder is really necessary or would they turn out ok without it?

      Thanks!! Omitting the baking powder would probably be okay, they just may not be as light and fluffy.
