These gluten free pancakes are thick, fluffy and buttery! They have the best flavor and texture. Nobody can tell they are gluten free. These pancakes are great for breakfast, brunch or breakfast for dinner. Both kids and adults love them!
First, add gluten free flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir together.
Then, add in egg, milk, melted butter and vanilla. Stir until a thick batter forms. For thinner pancakes, add up to ¼ cup more milk until desired consistency is reached.
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle to low medium heat. Add enough butter to coat the bottom of the pan.
Once butter has melted, ladle out ¼ cup of batter in a round shape.
Cook pancakes for about 3 minutes or until small bubbles form. Then, carefully flip.
Cook another 3 minutes on the second side or until cooked through. Add more butter to the skillet as needed.
Finally, remove from pan. Top with more butter and maple syrup. Serve!
Notes
Use gluten free 1 to 1 flour. King Arthur Flour and Bob's Red Mill make great options.
This pancake batter is relatively thick. This produces thick and fluffy pancakes.
For thinner pancakes, add slightly more milk to the batter.
Feel free to add in blueberries or chocolate chips to the pancake batter.
Allow the pan to heat and butter to melt before adding batter to the pan.
Continue adding butter to the pan to prevent dryness and sticking.
