Delicious homemade vegan apple pancakes for a healthy plant based breakfast that tastes like hot apple pie!
These apple pie pancakes are extra fat and fluffy.
The recipe serves one person, or it can easily be multiplied to feed a family.
If you want to throw caution to the wind, try serving the pancakes à la mode at least once in your life!
I recommend this Coconut Milk Ice Cream
Everything is better à la mode.
No exceptions.
The recipe was adapted from my Vegan Blueberry Pancakes and these Vegan Pancakes.
Vegan Apple Pancakes
Delicious homemade vegan apple pancakes for a healthy plant based breakfast!
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup flour (or try these Keto Pancakes)
- 2 tbsp rolled oats
- 1/2 cup finely-chopped apple
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2/3 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp sugar or pinch uncut stevia
- 1/3 cup milk of choice or more for thinner pancakes
- Unless you like the taste of fat-free pancakes add 1 tbsp oil (coconut oil is delicious here!) or buttery spread, and reduce milk by 1 tbsp
Instructions
- *I've tried the following flours successfully in this recipe: whole wheat pastry, white all purpose, whole grain spelt, or gluten free all purpose. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl, then add wet. Mix, but don’t overmix. Cook on an oiled (or sprayed) pan, on low-medium, flipping each pancake once. Top with syrup or ice cream of choice (my absolute favorite ice cream recipe is linked under the second photo in this post). Or cut up more apple, sprinkle with cinnamon (and perhaps some sweetener), and boil to make an apple compote.*Nutrition facts will be almost identical to those of my Pineapple Upside Down Pancakes*

Ok, now I’m starting to feel like your blog stalker. I swear I’ve been on here at least 5 times in the last 24 hours! 🙂 And of course I’ve been telling all my health conscious family and friends about you. Just made these for lunch with some homemade turkey sausage patties and I’m thinking nothing could have been better. I honestly didn’t think they could live up to your description but, would be good just the same (and healthy too!) So, I think they really do taste like eating a warm pie….will definitely be making these again! And I LOVE the simplicity of your recipes. If feel like after making them just a few times I will have them memorized. Makes my life as a mom just that much easier. Thanks!
Katie – I JUST made these for the first time this morning for breakfast. Mine didn’t turn out half as pretty as your photos show yours, but that didn’t affect the taste at all! YUM! I spread some almond butter on top of mine and it was just heavenly! Thanks for the fun ideas!
Katie, I’m sure you’ll be pleased to know that even when one begins making this recipe (for the hundredth time), and then realizes that one has no apples whatsoever in their house (for the first time ever), and thus ends up making hot apple pie pancakes sans apples, these still turn out glorious. 😉
I made these for breakfast today and they were absolutely delicious! Topped with some cooked apples and banana, as well as some sunflower seed butter, plus a dash of cinnamon, this was the perfect way to start my day and so satisfying! Thanks for such a great recipe 🙂
Delicious. Absolutely wonderful, and so easy to make.
Just made these….yumm-o! I actually cooked my apples first for about 7 minutes over med-low heat to soften them up…threw in a tad bit of lemon juice, a pinch of salt and cinnamon, and a tsp. of xylitol. Then once they cooled down a bit I threw folded them in with the rest of the ingredients. I used a gluten free mix that I make here at home (finely ground brown rice flour, a little sorghum flour, a pinch of xanthan gum, potato starch, and arrowroot starch…or tapioca could be used for those who can tolerate it), which already had a little bit of xanthan gum, so they held together perfectly. The texture was identical to that of a wheat pancake, only heartier and more filling because of the oats. I topped mine with some whipped cream made from the coconut fat in the canned milk, and then I sprinkled on a few walnuts and drizzled just a tiny bit of maple-flavored agave. So not entire healthy, but still WAAAAY better than IHOP! I’m going to see if I can actually bake these into little mini fluted tube cakes and blog about them on my bundt cake blog! You’ll see a link-back if I accomplish this fete. 🙂

Ooh good luck, girl!
I think i might have done somthing wrong… I followed the recipe but mine were raw inside. I cooked them low-medium heat and only flipped them once but only the outside cooked not in inside. What did I do wrong?
It’s impossible for me to know, since I wasn’t there 🙁
Maybe making them too big? Or using a different flour? Or accidentally too much liquid?
Okay, I’ll try it again this weekend and let ya know how it goes:P I really want them, they look soo good 😉
Thanks for replying:)
I finally tried them out this week and…. they were sooo delicious!! They didnt cook last time because I added too much milk:P Im soo glad I decided to try them again! So yummy, even my sister couldnt stop trying to eat them off my plate haha 😉
omg i made these these morning and i have only one word for them……DELICIOUS!!!! you should know that i make your pancakes every morning and im so excited to wake up just because im excited to make them!…i think i should eat them for lunch also….ahahaha
Katie, me and my son have both been recently diagnosed with egg, sugar and wheat allergies. Being known for my baking, this was devastating for me! I’ve been crying my way through breakfasts, trying to make things (especially pancakes) that everyone can eat, only to have disaster after disaster being thrown away in the garbage. These pancakes put such a huge smile on everyone’s face – and I’m so excited to try some of the others. We’re considering going vegan because it seems to supplement this diet so well, and after watching forks over knives last night, I think it sealed the deal. I’m nervous to try it, especially for my little 3 year old, because I hear so many claims on both sides, some pointing out dangerous risks coming from the vegan diet (mostly deficiencies). I’m worried about getting enough calcium in our diets, especially if we don’t eat soy. Any recommendations for good blogs/books to help us get started? Especially sites that are sensitive to people with wheat/soy /sugar allergies. Thanks so much for what you’re doing!!!
Aw, so glad my pancakes were a hit!
I really like The Vegetarian Way, by Virginia Messina, because it has chapters on all the nutrients. But a quick google search also led me to this: http://www.vegansoapbox.com/soy-free-and-vegan-is-it-possible/
Maybe it’ll be somewhat helpful for you! Good luck!
Hi Katie,
I, too, am reaching stalker-status here. Found you last night via Pinterest and now I’ve read many of your posts and I’ve already made these pancakes! I doubled the recipe and it was just right for me and my 2 little boys. I made them with no changes except I served them plain and they just dipped them in applesauce. I didn’t know a 1-yr old could eat that much of anything!
I’m a vegetarian and looking forward to surprising my non-veg family with more of your delicious HEALTHY treats! Thanks!
You are so welcome! Thank YOU for trying the recipes… and for such a kind comment :).
