Estos panqueques de jengibre are the best Christmas pancakes. They are ultra-fluffy and packed with gingerbread cookie flavor from cinnamon, ginger, and allspice. They are naturally egg-free, dairy-free, and very easy to make in 10 minutes for a cozy family Christmas breakfast.
I love to make delicious Christmas morning breakfast (and I have to admit, I make them not just for Christmas but throughout the holiday season), like my Pull Apart Christmas Tree Bread, Pumpkin Crepes o Gingerbread Banana Bread.
These pancakes are the best way to enjoy all the typical Christmas flavors with their great balance of spices. You’ll love them!

Instrucciones para la impresión en alta definición
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk the almond milk with apple cider vinegar. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, add all the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, ground ginger, allspice, and salt.
- Whisk in the milk mixture made before, oil, and vanilla extract.
- Calienta una plancha grande para tortitas o una sartén a fuego medio. Añade 1 cucharadita de aceite y mueve la sartén para cubrirla.
- Scoop out 4-5 tablespoons of pancake batter per pancake. Cook them for 2-3 minutes on one side until the edges dry out and look set.

Ingredientes y sustituciones
You need just a few plant-based ingredients for these delicious pancakes. Here’s how to pick them.
- Leche de almendras – I used unsweetened almond milk, but you can swap it for soy, oat, or cashew milk if preferred.
- Vinagre de sidra de manzana – The acidity of the vinegar reacts with baking powder to create ultra-fluffy pancakes. Lemon or lime juice also works well.
- Harina para todo uso – This creates the best texture for fluffy pancakes. For a gluten-free version, use my Guía de conversión a una dieta sin gluten. You can also try my Panqueques de trigo sarraceno and add the same spice mix to them.
- Brown Sugar – Brown sugar adds a touch of sweetness and caramel flavors. Swap it with maple syrup or coconut sugar for alternatives.
- Levadura en polvo – The key to the making fluffy pancakes, creating that light, airy texture.
- Aceite de Aguacate – Avocado oil provides richness without overpowering the flavors. Light olive oil, melted coconut oil, or applesauce can be used instead. You also need oil to grease the pan and cannot use applesauce for that!
- Especias – A mix of cinnamon, ginger, and allspice delivers classic gingerbread flavor. Adjust to taste or substitute with nutmeg.
- Extracto de vainilla – To boost the flavors of the spices.
How to Make Gingerbread Pancakes
These pancakes are super easy to make, like any other pancake recipe! What matters is to use the right ingredients and get the right consistency. The cooking is then similar to regular pancakes.
Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl and pour the liquid ingredients on the top.
Whisk the batter into a sticky but smooth batter.
Consejos de Carine
I have a few more tips for perfect pancakes:
- Mix Wet and Dry Separately – Whisk the almond milk and vinegar first, then mix with dry ingredients. This ensures a smooth, lump-free batter.
- No mezcle demasiado – Stir just until combined to keep the pancakes light and fluffy. Overmixing can make them dense.
- Use Medium Heat – A medium heat allows the pancakes to cook through without burning. Adjust the heat as needed between batches.
- Grease the Pan Well – To prevent sticking, coat the pan or griddle with oil or cooking spray before each batch.
- Cook in Cookie Cutters (Opcional) – Use metal Christmas cookie cutters for festive pancake shapes. Grease the cutters and fill them with batter on the griddle for adorable holiday designs.
Sugerencias para servir
These cupcakes are delicious as they are, but they are even better when served with some of my topping suggestions below.
- Ingredientes clásicos – Drizzle with maple syrup or serve with nut butter for a cozy finish.
- Estilo festivo – Top with a simple icing (powdered sugar mixed with almond milk or my full Vegan Royal Icing), Christmas sprinkles, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
- Frutas y nueces – Add chopped pecans, almonds, or fresh fruits like bananas for texture and natural sweetness.
- Gingerbread Boost – Stir 1 teaspoon of unsulfured molasses into the wet ingredients for an even richer gingerbread flavor.
Preparación anticipada y almacenamiento
You can prepare the batter up to 24 hours in advance and store it in a sealed container in the fridge. Once they are cooked, you can store the pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge por hasta 4 días. Reheat in a griddle or toaster for a freshly cooked taste.
Variaciones y personalizaciones
If you want more or different flavors, I have a few options for you to customize the pancakes.
- Libre de aceite – Replace the oil with applesauce for a lower-fat version.
- Extra Spices – Boost the flavors with additional ginger, cinnamon, or even a pinch of cloves.
- Holiday Twist – Create themed stacks using a mix of cookie-cutter shapes like stars, trees, or snowmen.
Estos panqueques de jengibre are a delicious way to celebrate the holiday season, making your Christmas morning extra special with minimal effort and maximum flavor!

Excellent recipe! Made w soy milk and substituted 1/2 c almond flour in the total flour measure. Added what dark chocolate chips I had.
If your kids are not into sharp gingerbread tone down the ginger. Will make again and again. I’m going to make ahead and save for Christmas morning with a festive glaze.
Thank you for this nice review!

Hi
tempting recipe
can I use whole wheat flour instead of all purpose flour for more healthier?
It should work, wholewheat absorb more liquid, the pancakes might be heavier and hold their shape a bit less.
made them gluten free and they turned out delicious. I did 1 cup of gf flour and 1/4 cup of almond flour. did need to add a splash morenof almond milk but they turned out fluffy and delicious
You guys are absolutely amazing and we love and appreciate all of your lovely recipes
