Fluffy Gluten-Free Pancakes & DIY | Free of Gluten, Dairy, and Refined Sugar.Pancakes make me happy. It reminds me of leisurely mornings spent with my family in the kitchen, working together to create a delicious meal. There’s usually one or two people making the pancakes—the batter maker and the pancake flipper. Then there’s the person in charge of cracking eggs. Knock, knock, knock goes each egg against the rim of the bowl before it’s cracked open and the slimy egg slides out. “Careful not to get any shells in there,” I usually say.

I like to be in charge of making the coffee and cutting fruit. I figured out early on that if I get the fruit cut up quickly, I can usually sit for a moment and enjoy my coffee while the rest of breakfast is finishing up. But, let’s keep that little tidbit of info between you and I, shall we?

Although we’re a music-loving family, none of us can play instruments or sing, ironically, except in the shower—my private stage for belting out some random song, typically one I’ve picked up from the radio. Most times I’ve only learned the chorus, so I half hum/half sing the rest.

Often times someone will turn on Jack Johnson’s Banana Pancakes song and we sing along in one happy chorus. If we’re lucky, the pancake batter maker may even be inspired to throw in a few mashed bananas.

Description

A simple homemade pancake mix that makes whipping up a batch of fluffy pancakes so easy! Free of gluten, dairy, and refined sugar!


Ingredients

Scale

OPTION 1—Fluffy pancake recipe to make now (Makes 5-6 pancakes. Recipe can easily be doubled to make more pancakes):

  • 1 cup gluten-free multipurpose flour (scooped into the cup and leveled; not packed. I use Bobs Red Mill 1 To 1 Baking Flourone !important; margin:0px !important;” />)
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder (make sure it’s gluten-free if needed)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or Coconut Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup or Coconut Sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons milk of choice (I use almond milk)
  • fresh fruit for serving
  • pure maple syrup to drizzle on top

OPTION 2—To Make Pancake Mix: (Which can be stored in an airtight container and can be used to make single batches of pancakes)

  • 4 cups gluten-free multi-purpose flour (I use and recommend Bobs Red Mill 1 To 1 Baking Flourone !important; margin:0px !important;” />)
  • 1/4 cup Coconut Sugar, Maple Sugar (granulated, not syrup) or organic cane sugar
  • 2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons Baking Powder (make sure it’s gluten-free, if needed, and check expiration date)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt

How To Use Pancake Mix: (Makes 5-6 pancakes)

  • 1 cup pancake mix
  • 3/4 cup milk, a little more may be needed it you want them thinner
  • 2 tablespoons melted Coconut Oil or butter + extra for greasing the pan (olive oil can also be used)
  • 1 egg

Variations (per 1 cup flour mix used):

  • Banana Pancakes—Add 1 large or 2 small mashed bananas. A little extra milk may be needed.
  • Blueberry Pancakes—Fold in 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • Chocolate Chip Pancakes—Fold in 1/3 cup chocolate chips (I like semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips)

Instructions

OPTION 1—Make Pancakes Now:

  1. Combine 1 cup flour, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl. Mix together with a whisk and then add melted butter, sweetener of choice, and 1 egg. Begin whisking in milk as you stir mixture together. Depending on the type of flour you use, more or less milk may be needed to stir it in slowly and stop when the consistency is right—slightly thick, but pourable. If mixture is too thick for your liking, feel free to add a splash more milk.
  2. Pour batter onto a hot and greased griddle by the 1/4 cupfuls. Flip when pancakes have fluffed and bubbles appear on the surface. Makes 5-6 pancakes.

OPTION 2—To Make Pancake Mix:

  1. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large airtight container or jar. Stir mixture really well with a whisk so that everything is evenly incorporated. Cover and store for up to 6 weeks.

To Use Pancake Mix:

  1. Place 1 cup of pancake mix, 3/4 cup milk, melted butter/oil, and an egg into a large bowl. Mix batter with a whisk until smooth.
  2. Pour batter onto a hot and greased griddle by the 1/4 cupfuls. Flip when pancakes have fluffed and bubbles appear on the surface. Makes 5-6 pancakes.

    Love that this recipe is gluten-free!
