(Ihop-style) White Chocolate Peppermint Pancakes



This is a great treat for those that have a sweet tooth and just generally love the holidays. There's not much of an offset between the sweet and savory - so I added cinnamon to make it seem like a slightly mature taste as well as adding a lot less sugar than usual to the pancake batter. May it fill your hearts (and your stomachs) with holiday cheer.



(Pancake Batter Ingredients)

  • 1 cup of White Whole Wheat
  • 1/2 cup of All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/4 tsp of Sea Salt
  • 1 tbl of Raw Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp of Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp of Baking Powder
  • 1 cup of Vegan Buttermilk (with ACV)
  • 1/4 package of Medium-Firm Tofu (blend with buttermilk)
  • Vegan White Chocolate Chips(recipe below)

(Vegan White Chocolate Chips Ingredients)
  • 1/2 Vanilla Bean (scraped)
  • 1/4 cup of Coconut Oil (melted
  • 1/2 cup of Powdered Sugar
  • A pinch of Sea Salt


(Toppings)

  • Crushed peppermint candy)
  • Whipped coconut cream (unsweetened)

(Directions)
  • Mix all of your pancake batter ingredients together.Set aside.
  • For white chocolate chips: stir your ingredients together. Place onto a plate and put into the freezer for about five to ten minutes or until slightly hardened.
  • Chop into small, equal sized pieces, and stir into the pancake batter.
  • Spray a large non-stick pan with cooking spray and set it on the lowest setting for your pancakes.
  • Once the pancakes have started to firm up on the bottom you can turn the heat up lightly, flip once they bubble and repeat until finished.
  • Cover with whipped coconut cream (unsweetened), bits of crushed peppermint candy/candy canes and hit with a few dashes of cinnamon.
  • Enjoy!
