Vegan Soufflé Pancakes with Maple Syrup
Classically, these all-the-rage-right-now pancakes are made with whipped egg whites, which give them their airy texture and impressive height. This vegan version is fluffy and super impressive for when you want to amaze your friends, but please note that when I say a ring mould is essential to the success of this recipe, I mean it.

Sift the , , , , and a pinch of salt into a medium mixing bowl and make a well in the middle. Pour the wet mixture into the dry and, using a spatula, gently fold the dry into the wet, mixing only until there are no visible dry spots. You need to keep the mixture light and airy for this to work.
Spray a heavy-based cast-iron frying pan with non-stick spray and warm over a low heat for a few minutes. For these pancakes to do the whole soufflé thing, they need the assistance of metal ring moulds. The higher the sides, the higher you can get your pancakes.
Spray the inside of four high-sided ring moulds and place two in the pan (it’s best to cook them in two batches as you need space to flip them). Fill with 2–3 tablespoons of the mixture, depending how high you’d like them.
Once the mix is in and level, place a lid on the pan and allow to cook for 5 minutes. Remove the lid and flip the while still in the mould. Place the lid back on the pan and cook for another 2 minutes.
To test whether they are cooked through, press on the top of a – if there is slight resistance, you should be good to go. Repeat to make the remaining pancakes.
