Gluten Free Pancakes

These gluten free pancakes are one of the first things that made me feel like I could still eat delicious food after being told by my doctor that I’m allergic to wheat and now have to eat completely gluten free. I admit, I was a little devastated, as many of my favorite foods have wheat. But after coming to grips with it and doing a little research I realized that although I can’t have wheat, there are still ways to create alternative yummy recipes of the foods that I love. This pancake recipe still cooks up fluffy, light and flavorful while being completely gluten free.

Finding Good Gluten Free Flour

The most important step to fluffy gluten-free pancakes is starting with a good GF flour. Not all gluten free flours are created equal! You need to find a good one that says it substitutes cup for cup with regular flour. I had to experiment with a few different ones before finding this one that I really like. Recently I tried the Namaste Perfect Flour Blend Gluten Free Flour, which I found at Costco. It’s delicious and measures exactly like flour. And it gives this pancake recipe that light, fluffy texture that I’ve been craving.

Coconut Yogurt Syrup

This coconut syrup is to die for! It tastes just like the coconut syrups that they serve at diners in Hawaii. I could eat it with a spoon, it’s that yummy. Plus, it’s super easy to make and tastes amazing with this pancake recipe. Of course, there are dozens of syrups and toppings you can try, but this is one of my favorites to share with you. Here’s all you need:

SugarCoconut Greek Yogurt. You could use regular coconut yogurt too, but the Greek variety gives it more bulk and flavor.ButterCoconut extract

Melt all the ingredients together and whisk over low heat until they’re all combined and smooth. It’s delicious on waffles, toast, homemade rolls, just about anything!

More Syrup Recipes and Toppings

If blackberries aren’t your thing, just leave them out! You can add chocolate chips instead, or blueberries, strawberries, raspberries or nuts.Try our version of Kneaders Caramel Syrup or Nicea’s Homemade Yogurt Syrup. Both of these syrups have a creamier texture that enhances the richness and flavor of the pancake. Of course, traditional maple syrup is always a favorite. We also have several tasty options along with our pancakes recipes below. Mix and match to find your favorites!
