Am I Doing Something Wrong?

I bought Kinnikinnick's pancake mix and I was sooo looking forward to eating them...but when i made them, the pancakes were runny and didn't seem to have the right texture. It seemed like too much liquid or something... I don't know what I did.

Can someone help me? Or does anyone know exactly how they prepare them so they are nice and fluffy?

Pancakes, in general, have a lot to do with the weather. Mine have been runny lately too. I think it depends on the humidity or something. I have made the same mix in the summer and they come up light and fluffy. I have no idea how to fix this problem, just sympathizing!!

FWIW, my recipe for "regular" pancakes used to do the same thing. Some days they'd be thick and puffy, others they'd just run all over the place.

I don't use a mix, but I make pancakes from scratch at least once a week. I have found that it's best to mix in too little liquid at first and then slowly stir in more until the batter is the right consistency.

I use the same pancake mix, and I put in half the liquid and stir well, then add the rest a little at a time so they don't get too runny.

Pretty much, pancake recipes are a guide, not set in stone. Never add the full amount of liquid to start with. Add everything but the water/milk/juice, then add that liquid until you get the right consistency.

Hope this helps....

I have tried several mixes and the one I like best is Pamela's. I think it's the almond flour in it that gives it such good flavor. These always cook up well. I also use them to make muffins of all varities

As someone mentioned weather does play a roll in the cooking of pancakes, but these are never runny, if anything you may have to add more water. If you do need to add morem do so a liittle at a time.

      I realize I'm super late in the game regarding this topic but in case anyone is still reading/commenting on this one-does anyone who is especially sensitive have their personal observations to share regarding Primal Kitchen brand?  My daughter was diagnosed almost 2 years ago with celiac and within 6 months, her follow up labs were normal and a year later vitamin levels significantly improving, but we are still battling GI symptoms; particularly, constipation, so much that she has been on MiraLax every day since she was 3.  We've managed to get her down to a half cap every other day but without that, she continues to have issues (when she has a known, accidental ingestion unfortunately it takes a lot more MiraLax and additional laxatives to help her).  I was searching for something else and found this and am wondering if anyone has any specific comments regarding Primal Kitchen.  I feel like we are so incredibly careful with diet, logging diet and symptoms to look for patterns (we've had multiple dieticians help with this piece as well), not eating out, contacting companies and of course, there is always room for improvement but I'm running out of ideas regarding where her issues could be coming from.  Even if the Primal Kitchen is contributing, I'm sure it's not the only thing contributing but I can't help but think there must be handful of things that are working together and against her.  The ingredients list distilled white vinegar, but also white wine vinegar and balsamic, then "spices" which I'm always cautious about.  However, after contacting the company, I felt more comfortable allowing her to consume their products but over time I've realized that the front-line customer service support people don't always provide the most accurate of information.  Thanks for reading to anyone that does.

      Welcome to the forum, @Bebee, Yes, Celiac Disease has genetic commonalities with MS, hypothyroidism, arthritis, Reynaud, and rosacea.   Usually a gluten challenge is done before endoscopy with biopsies taken,  however I would not recommend a gluten challenge before endoscopy with biopsies for you since you have been gluten free for so long and have so many concurrent autoimmune diseases.   You can still have the endoscopy with biopsy samples taken now.  After several months with dietary changes, you can have another to compare results and check that intestinal health has improved.   You can get a genetic test for Celiac disease which shares genetics with other autoimmune diseases that you have.  Eating gluten is unnecessary for genetic tests. For the rosacea, get checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) that could be causing gastrointestinal symptoms as well as causing skin issues.  Our skin is a reflection of our gastrointestinal health.     Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet has been helpful in keeping my own rosecea, eczema, and dermatitis herpetiformis and other autoimmune diseases in check.   Be sure to be checked for nutritional deficiencies that occur easily in gluten free and dairy free diets. Keep us posted on your progress! References: Clustering of autoimmune diseases in patients with rosacea https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26830864/ And...

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb
