Made without eggs or dairy, this easy recipe delivers the same delicious flavour and texture as classic pancakes.

Fluffy Vegan Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes

Just in time for Pancake Day, these fluffy vegan Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes are are bursting with fruity goodness. Each bite is packed with juicy blueberries, and they’re topped with a tangy blueberry and lemon coulis for an extra layer of flavour.

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just treating yourself to a delicious breakfast, these pancakes are a fantastic choice. For a different twist, you might also enjoy my strawberry ricotta pancakes.

Pancakes are always so popular in our house. They are the best wake up call to get everyone to sit quickly at the dining table.

This recipe makes 8 pancakes, enough to serve four people generously. Instead of the coulis, you can enjoy them with your favourite toppings, from classic maple syrup to nut butters or extra fresh berries. They’re versatile, easy to make, and perfect for any time of the day.

For the best texture, I use a mix of white flour and spelt flour, but you can simply use white flour if you prefer. Fresh blueberries add a burst of flavour, but frozen blueberries work just as well. If you’re not following a vegan diet, you can easily substitute the chia eggs with 2 organic eggs and swap the non-dairy milk for regular dairy milk.

I hope you enjoy these blueberry buttermilk pancakes as much as I do. If you do make it, don’t forget to tag me on Instagram!

  • Heat some oil or dairy free butter in a pancake pan under medium heat. Add 3/4 of a ladle of the blueberry pancake batter to the pan for each pancake. Cook for 3 minutes or so, until bubbles start appearing on the top. Flip and cook for a further 2 minutes on the other side. Each pancake should rise to about 1 cm. Repeat for each pancake until you have used up all the batter.
  • Serve hot or warm with blueberry coulis on top.
