Spiced Gluten Free Pancakes

These Spiced Gluten Free Pancakes were the first thing I made with the Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Mix I shared last week. I had some issues and had to dive deep into recipe development. The recipe below comes after multiple tries so please enjoy on a Sunday morning with your gluten-free pals.

I really love pancakes. I don’t know if that is clear yet even though there are quite a few pancake recipes on this blog.

The first thing I did when the doctor told me to try a gluten-free diet was make pancakes.

Well after I made a gluten free all purpose flour mix. What can I say? I just really love breakfast foods.

Since seeing if going gluten-free made any difference (it’s really hard to tell, I have no idea, to be honest!) I’ve found a new passion: experimenting with gluten-free flour mixes, alternative baking techniques, and other substitutions, like making a recipe vegan or dairy-free.

I was getting sort of bored in my baking routine so this is definitely adding new and interesting elements to the mix. I’m finding it extremely fascinating. Since baking is a science, it leads to endless opportunities to learn and grow as a baker.  Thanks for following along with me.

Spiced Gluten Free Pancakes

These pancakes were made gluten-free using a gluten-free all-purpose flour mix. Feel free to use any brand 1:1 gluten-free flour such as Bob's Red Mill. Make sure if you need this to be completely free of gluten that you mindfully purchase your ingredients. If you are using an already mixed all-purpose gluten-free flour from the store, you won't need to add xanthan gum as I did in this recipe.

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Total Time 1 hour

Ingredients

• 1 cup Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
• 2 tablespoons unrefined sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
• 2 tablespoons cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 cup milk or almond milk
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 egg

Instructions

1. Preheat a griddle and lightly grease with a pat of butter.
2. In a medium bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, xanthan gum, cinnamon and nutmeg together.
3. Add your choice of milk, melted butter and egg to the dry mixture and mix until fully combined.
4. Using a large cookie scoop, scoop out the batter onto the griddle.
5. The batter might need a little help spreading into a circle shape, do this by using the back of the cookie scoop and gently spread the batter outward.
6. Cook until bubbles form on the top, about 2-4 minutes.
7. Flip the pancake using a large spatula and cook for another 2-4 minutes.
8. Optional: Top with sliced strawberries and homemade whipped cream.

Notes

If you are using an already mixed all purpose gluten free flour from the store, you won't need to add xanthan gum as I did in this recipe.
