4 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp chia seed

For pancakes, wet ingredients:
2 eggs or 2 vegan eggs (2 tbsp flax meal mixed well with 5 tbsp boiling water)
4 tbsp oil (melted coconut oil, or avocado oil would work best)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice + 1/4 to 1/2 cup extra almond milk on the side
