Why Are These Pancakes So Delicious?

• These gluten-free pancakes are the richest, sweetest, fluffiest, and indulgent we’ve ever had.
• This recipe is really simple, but it doesn’t taste gluten-free (unlike other gluten-free meals we’ve tried).
• With a few simple substitutions, these fluffy gluten-free pancakes can also be made vegan.

The Best Way To Make Them

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg or egg substitute, granulated sugar, vanilla essence, and vegetable oil.
2. In a mixing dish, combine the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until everything is well blended.
3. Stir in the milk until it is completely mixed. Add an extra 1-2 teaspoons of milk if you want thinner pancakes. (We prefer them thick!)
4. Spoon the batter into a 14-cup measuring cup and pour one pancake onto a prepared skillet or griddle. Cook until the batter begins to bubble, then turn it. Cook until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Continue with the remaining pancakes.
5. Serve with butter and maple syrup, whipped cream and berries, or any other topping of your choice.

Chef’s Advice

• Use a flax egg instead of an egg, non-dairy milk instead of buttermilk, and vinegar instead of buttermilk to make vegan pancakes.
• If your gluten-free flour contains xanthan gum, your pancakes will have the proper texture and be light and fluffy. If you can’t locate any that do, add 1-2 tablespoons xanthan gum to the batter instead. But don’t go overboard! It has the potential to make your batter gummy.
• Try topping these wonderful gluten-free pancakes with homemade strawberry sauce or maple cinnamon butter for an extra special treat.

Notes

• If your gluten-free flour does not include xanthan gum, add 1-2 tablespoons to the batter.
• If using buttermilk, leave out the milk and vinegar entirely. After stirring in the flour and baking powder, add 3/4 cup buttermilk. If necessary, add 1-2 teaspoons more liquid to thicken the batter.
