These vegan apple pancakes are light, fluffy, specked with slices of tender caramelized apples, and topped with rich peanut butter maple syrup sauce!



I’m not going to lie. This was a tough one for me to post.

I had to really give some thought to this blog’s identity. A little blog soul-searching. Okay, so it’s all vegan food. There’s that. Some of it is very healthy. But then some of the recipes are pure pleasure. Like these apple pancakes.

I’ve got a few pancake posts in my archives at this point, but if I go back and review them all, there’s at least something to make up for the fact that you’re eating cake for breakfast. Maybe some quinoa. Maybe tofu. Maybe secret veggies. Yesterday I went on a bit about desert for breakfast and breakfast for dessert. Once I cooked up these and sat down to eat, I realized they definitely fell in the dessert for breakfast category, and not the same kind of dessert for breakfast as chia pudding.

They’ve got fruit in them. Okay, that’s something, although I put “caramelized” fruit more in the candy category. I used whole wheat pastry flour, so that helps (although to be completely honest, I just like the texture better than all-purpose). And then there’s my boyfriend’s words after polishing off a plate of them: “Delicious. I’m ready to run a marathon.” (He’s not a runner.) So, I’ll let you decide.

In my defense: these were my favorite pancakes ever. Ever! They were so damn good, and so worth it. If I ever need to impress brunch company, I’m totally feeding them these pancakes.

That’s about all I’ve got to say about these. It’s fall. These will make you happy and satisfied. And if you’re thinking of taking up running, here’s your motivation on a plate.
