Delicious homemade vegan apple pancakes for a healthy plant based breakfast that tastes like hot apple pie!

apple pie pancakes

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

Apple Pancakes

Everything is better à la mode.

No exceptions.

The recipe was adapted from my Vegan Blueberry Pancakes and these Vegan Pancakes.

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*

    Katie, I love your blog but I live in a family of 4 other kids and when I make your recipes, it only makes enough for one kid! 🙂
    Maybe you can make “family size” recipes fit for a family of 7 total people. I bet lots others would appreciate it as well. I’m sure you’re like a challenge!
    Sincerely,
    -Maddie 🙂

    Hi Katie! I tried making these, I followed the recipe exactly except i used vanilla powder and added both milk and oil without cutting back on the milk. I only got pancakes about the size of big oranges (not in height) And they got very thin. I cooked them for so long but they were still liquidy in the middle. They were still delicious though. But what could I have being doing wrong? 🙂

    Like your recipes! 🙂 Have a nice day!

    1. Chocolate Covered Katie says:

      Are you making them too big? Try making smaller pancakes so the outsides don’t cook before the insides get a chance to finish.

    I made these this morning. I used ww pastry flour… and 1 tablespoon xylitol plus about 10-15 drops stevita for the sugar. I also added 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar per batch (I doubled the recipe) because I find vinegar usually makes for a less dense pancake. I pulsed peeled and roughly chopped Granny Smith apples into a fine chop in the food processor. I also used flax seed oil for the fat portion. I used my leftover chopped up apple in the syrup, which I added a bit of cinnamon and earth balance to and cooked on the stove while the pancakes were going. I served with vanilla ice cream and the cooked syrup. I thought they were delicious. My family said they prefer my plain or blueberry pancakes. My two year old refused to eat these…lol. I guess they are pancake purists. But, again, I tried them and I thought they were very good.

    hey! can anyone give me a good apple compote recipe???

  5. Lynsey says:

    I used Better Oats 100 cal/sugar free Maple Brown Sugar oats and didn’t need to add any sugar, absolutely delicious! Thanks, Katie!!

  6. BlindGrrL says:

    I had some leftover apples from making a pie, so I used one for this recipe- yum! I’ve only tried to make pancakes a couple times before with no success (too undercooked inside as I never know when they’re ready) but after burning the first one of this batch, I turned the heat down, kept a close eye on the edges of the next one and for bubbles forming in the middle, and the rest came out great. I’m honing my pancake-making skills, and this recipe was definitely a great one to cut my teeth on (and in general)! In fact, I’m making these again tomorrow… only to make sure I really know how to make pancakes now, of course 😉

  7. Amy says:

    I made a batch of these substituting carrot for apple….yum! Added some raisins, too!

  8. Priscilla says:

    omg, I tried this recipe just now. OMG IT WAS PERF>

    I made a few adjustements, like, 3//4tbsp of coconut oil, 2tsp of sugar, I also made my own topping. I used the other half of the apple and stuck it in a blender, then added a bit of water and cinnamon. I drizzled it on the pancakes and it was perfect guys. let me tell you. you need to try it. ok!

  9. Barbara says:

    Could you please tell me how many pancakes this recipe makes? My husband loves breakfast for dinner and apple pie…so this will make the perfect birthday dinner for him this week!

  10. Barbara says:

    Can I ask how many pancakes this recipe makes? Apple pie and breakfast for dinner are two of my husband’s favorites so this will be a perfect birthday dinner tomorrow!

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      It is a single-serving recipe, so the amount in the photos is all it makes ;).
