Time 20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup all-purpose gluten-free flour
½ teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 egg
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup cold milk, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Combine gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl; mix well.
  • Mix egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract together in a second bowl until well combined. Stir flour mixture into egg mixture with a wooden spoon until a lumpy batter forms. Pour in milk and mix until a smooth batter forms. Set batter aside to thicken, 5 to 10 minutes. Add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if batter is too thick.
  • Heat oil in a griddle over medium-low heat. Drop 1 to 2 heaped tablespoonfuls onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

¼ cup gluten-free all-purpose baking flour (such as Bob's Red Mill®)
¼ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 large egg yolks
1 pinch salt
4 large egg whites
¼ cup white sugar
1 pinch cream of tartar
1 ½ teaspoons vegetable oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine flour, buttermilk, vanilla, baking powder, egg yolks, and salt for batter in a bowl.
  • Whip egg whites for meringue in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl on medium-high speed until foamy. With the mixer running, gradually add sugar and cream of tartar. Continue to whip until soft to medium peaks form. When the beater is pulled from the whites, the peaks will curve back down a little instead of sticking straight up. The whipped whites will turn opaque and significantly increase in volume.
  • Mix 1/3 of the whipped whites into the pancake batter. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to fold in remaining whites, in several additions, being sure there are no large clumps of egg whites in the batter.
  • Grease the inside of round metal molds and place molds into a lightly greased pan over medium-low heat. Fill molds 2/3 high with batter. Cover the pan and cook until bottoms are golden brown and bubbles break the surface, about 10 minutes. Flip, cover, and cook until golden brown on the other side and tops spring back when touched, about 5 more minutes.

This will help to create a light and fluffy texture. - Make sure to whisk the dry ingredients together thoroughly before adding the wet ingredients. This will help to prevent lumps. - Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the pancakes tough. - Use a well-seasoned griddle or pan for cooking the pancakes. This will help to prevent sticking. - Cook the pancakes over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning. - Flip the pancakes only once. Flipping them too often can make them tough. - Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings.
