After my son was diagnosed with an egg allergy, pancakes quickly became one of the breakfasts I was determined to recreate. I wanted recipes that used simple ingredients I already had in my kitchen. I have tried so many premade mixes and I truly recommend just making homemade pancakes. It is cheaper and they taste better!
Why you’ll love these recipes: Note from Lexi
When I put a recipe up on my blog its needs to meet a few criteria:
1. No weird ingredients – there is no need to run from store to store looking for weird egg substitutes. I use typical fridge and pantry staple ingredients.
2. The recipe tastes like the real deal: I want my recipes to be just as good (and often times better in my humble opinion) as classic recipes that include eggs.
3. Approachable: I need my recipes to be practical and straightforward. I am a busy mom of 3 little kids so let’s get breakfast on the table fast!
Enjoy!

Tips for Making the Best Eggless Pancakes
1. Don’t Overmix the Batter
Expect some lumps in the batter! Overmixing develops the gluten in the flour and can make pancakes tough instead of fluffy.
2. Cook Over Medium-Low Heat
If the pan is too hot, the outside will brown before the middle is cooked. Medium-low heat gives the pancakes time to rise and cook evenly.
3. Double check your leavening agents
Make sure your baking powder and baking soda are not expired!
Favorite Pancake Toppings
These pancakes are delicious on their own, but they’re even better with toppings like:
- Maple syrup
- Fresh strawberries
- Blueberries
- Banana slices
- Butter
- Whipped cream
- Chocolate chips
- Jam
- Powdered sugar

To reheat, microwave for 20 to 30 seconds or warm them in a toaster for slightly crispy edges.
To make eggless pancakes, I recommend using milk, baking powder, baking soda, and vinegar as an egg substitute. This allows the pancake to have enough moisture and lift.
Yes! Use a dairy-free milk such as soy milk, almond milk or oat milk. Use a vegan butter or yogurt if the recipe calls for that.
