You can substitute butter in pancakes with several alternatives, primarily using oils.
Butter Alternatives for Pancakes
When a pancake recipe calls for melted butter, you can replace it with other ingredients that provide similar moisture and texture. Here are some options:
-
Vegetable Oil: A simple 1:1 substitution works well. Vegetable oil adds moisture and tenderness to pancakes. According to 10-Jul-2018, vegetable-based oils add moisture and tenderness.
-
Melted Coconut Oil: Use coconut oil as a dairy-free substitute. Coconut oil is solid at room temperature, behaving similarly to butter when melted. The reference 10-Jul-2018 states melted coconut oil can act similarly to butter.
