Hi

I've tried several pancake recipes I found on the net and can't get it right...my ds wouldn't have them

Also tried buckwheat...no dice

Anyone have a solid gluten-free (and hopefully everything else free) pancake recipe to share?

Thanks so much, Kim

There was a recipe for chickpea socca in The Gluten Free Bible that I made and it was like a pancake minus the sugar (which would be easy to remedy). I'll look it up when I get home.

I religiously use Pamela's baking mix. You just have to add an egg, water and a little oil for pancakes. I've tried a few recipes from scratch and nothing compares to Pamela's!

I agree, Pamela's my favorite. But doesn't it have brown rice flour? I'm at work or I'd check.

Sometimes, like with Namaste, by the time they get through telling me what all it doesn't have in it, I'm wondering "Okay, what do you put in that bag?" :-)

I'm pretty sure Pamela's has brown rice flour - that's why its best kept refrigerated.

Here's a pancake mix I got from a book somewhere. I bet if you substituted white rice or more sorghum for the brown rice flour, it would be good.

For pancakes take a cup of this mix and add 1 egg, 2/3 cup water, 1 tablespoon oil. I usually add cinnamon and an extra spoonful of sugar, as my son does not add syrup.

Make-Your-Own Pancake/Waffle Mix

1/4 cup brown rice flour

1/4 cup sorghum flour

1/4 cup almond meal

1/4 cup soy flour

1/4 cup buttermilk powder

2 tbsp tapioca flour

2 tbsp potato starch

2 tbsp sugar

2 1/4 tsp baking powder

3/4 tsp baking soda

pinch of salt

1/2 tsp Xanthan gum

Hi Kim,

Here is a recipe from "The Gluten Free Kitchen", by Roben Ryberg. I highly recommend this book--the recipes are delicious and very good for those who are grain free. She uses corn and potato starches in place of flours.

BUTTERMILK PANCAKES

1/4 cup sugar

2 tablespoons shortening

2 tablespoons oil

1 egg

3/4 cup cornstarch

3/4 cup potato starch

1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 and 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

3/4 cup buttermilk

Combine sugar and shortening.Mix well. Add all ingredients except buttermilk. While stirring, add buttermilk, being sure to remove all lumps from batter. Batter will be thin.

Pour batter onto hot, greased griddle. Turn when lightly browned.

Because these pancakes are thick, check the sides to be sure no damp batter shows. If it does, cook a little longer.

Makes about 15 3-inch pancakes.

Try making crepes. Kids love them and they are easy to make.

2 eggs

1 Tblsp Sugar

1/4 Cup Flour (I've used White Rice, gluten-free mix, Sorghum & Corn Starch)

1 Cup Milk (I use my Almond Milk as I don't do dairy)

I also add a bit of vanilla, cook the kids in butter and cook mine in olive oil. I bet coconut oil would work really well too.

Here are the ingredients. I guess I didn't read into it that there might be an issue with the brown rice flour other than the taste of 100% brown rice flour...

INGREDIENTS: Brown Rice Flour, White Rice Flour, Cultured Buttermilk, Natural Almond Meal (may appear as brown flecks), Tapioca Starch, Sweet Rice Flour, Potato Starch, Grainless & Aluminum Free Baking Powder (Sodium Bicarbonate, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Potato Starch), Baking Soda, Sea Salt, Xanthan Gum.

I found a receipe on www.allrecipes.com in the gluten free section for delicious gluten free pancakes that is absolutely the best. I like them better than regular pancakes using wheat flour. I do use buttermilk in place of the buttermilk powdewr and water (1 1/2 buttermilk). You have got to try them!

Hey Bob, that Crepe recipe looks like something I'll have to try!

Here's the Chickpea Socca recipe from The Gluten-Free Bible as promised:

1 Cup chickpea Flour

1 cup water

1/4 cup olive oil

1 tbsp salt

  1. Mix all four ingredients and pour into a hot crepe pan, tilting to coat pan in an even layer.
  2. Cook on one side until golden brown. (For thicker crepes, you may have to flip and cook on the other side)
  3. Remove from heat and set aside to crisp in a warm place (near pilot light or in a warm oven that has been turned off)

I love this recipe because it's so easy and I always have the ingredients but it's more of a crepe than a pancake (although I always have to play with the water to get it thin enough to be a crepe). It doesn't have any sugar in it but I wouldn't think adding sugar and vanilla would be a problem.

Jax Peters Lowell (the author) mentions dipping it into pesto but every time I've made it, I've used it for chicken crepes. Also, I always skip the crisping part because I want something I can wrap for a crepe.

Kim, you have to try mine too :)

Mix 1 cup brown rice flour, 3/4 cup tapioca starch, 1/4 cup ground flaxseed, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1/4 tsp. salt. Mix separately 1 cup milk, 1/4 cup canola oil, 1 egg, and a rounded 3/4 cup of [choice.] Mix the two mixtures together and cook.

Choice: mashed banana, canned pumpkin, ricotta cheese, thick flavored yogurt, or blueberry-cherry-apple pie filling. (If I use pie filling, I put a dollop of ricotta or sour cream in the cup first.)

I keep a supply of these in the freezer at all times. I haven't tried substituting, but I think sorghum flour would work as well as brown rice.

      It sounds like you've been through a lot with your son's health journey, and it's understandable that you're seeking answers and solutions. Given the complexity of his symptoms and medical history, it might be beneficial to explore a few avenues: Encourage your son to keep a detailed journal of his symptoms, including when they occur, their severity, any triggers or patterns, and how they impact his daily life. This information can be valuable during medical consultations and may help identify correlations or trends. Consider seeking opinions from specialized medical centers or academic hospitals that have multidisciplinary teams specializing in gastrointestinal disorders, especially those related to Celiac disease and Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EOE). These centers often have experts who deal with complex cases and can offer a comprehensive evaluation. Since you've already explored alternative medicine with a nutrition response doctor and a gut detox diet, you may want to consider consulting a functional medicine practitioner. They take a holistic approach to health, looking at underlying causes and imbalances that may contribute to symptoms. Given his low vitamin D levels and other nutritional markers, a thorough nutritional assessment by a registered dietitian or nutritionist specializing in gastrointestinal health could provide insights into any deficiencies or dietary adjustments that might help alleviate symptoms. In addition to routine tests, consider asking about more specialized tests that may not be part of standard screenings. These could include comprehensive stool analyses, food intolerance testing, allergy panels, or advanced imaging studies to assess gut health.

      Hello, I am a 45 year old mom, who was diagnosed at 29 with Celiac. My now 14 year old son was diagnosed just before his 4th birthday. Needless to say, we are old pros with the diet. He was experiencing some issues, overall health took a major plummet a year ago, and through a bit of work, was diagnosed with EOE. Tried diet alone, but his follow up endoscopy didn't show the improvements his DR. wanted to see, so I tried the medication. (Steroid). He became extremely backed up, and they had him taking Miralax daily. His health plummeted. He is a straight A honor's 8th grader who plays club soccer very competitively. His health continued to decline and at 13 had a colonoscopy and another upper gi. (He was still compacted even with the prep). I finally pulled him off all meds and mira lax, after reading much negative literature online, and put him on a gut detox diet and took him to a nutrition response dr. Finally things have improved. However...over a year later and he is having relapse stomach pain, debilitating stomach pain. Missing a day of school a week, to three this week. This is where we downward spiral with him. He says it doesn't feel the same as when he has gotten backed up before. He is eating prunes, taking his supplements, drinking water...all of the things. Yet, he is feeling horrible. Pain is abdomen, headache, lethargy, diarrhea . He is on a strict gluten dairy, egg free diet. He has adapted well in regards to diet. But I feel like we are missing something here. He is too active, too outgoing to be feeling sick all of the time. His Bilirubin is constantly high. His white blood count always runs slightly low. His vitamin D was very low last time he ran tests, (last month) when he was sick for a week. His celiac markers show negative, so it isn't that. His last endoscopy showed no Eosinaphils in his esophagus.  I have taken him to multiple Ped. Gastro specialists. They run tests, and we get zero answers. I meticulously go through labs, hoping to make some sense and maybe catch something. Any thoughts or ideas would greatly be appreciated.

      But if you have been off of wheat for a period of weeks/months leading up to the testing it will likely turn out to be negative for celiac disease, even if you actually have celiac disease. Given your symptoms when consuming gluten, we certainly understand your reluctance to undergo  the "gluten challenge" before testing but you need to understand that the testing may be a waste of time if you don't. What are you going to do if it is negative for celiac disease? Are you going to go back to merrily eating wheat/barley/rye products while living in pain and destroying your health? You will be in a conundrum. Do I or do I not? And you will likely have a difficult time being consistent with your diet. Celiac disease causes inflammation to the small bowel villous lining when gluten containing grains are consumed. This inflammation produces certain antibodies that can be detected in the blood after they reach a certain level, which takes weeks or months after the onset of the disease. If gluten is stopped or drastically reduced, the inflammation begins to decrease and so do the antibodies. Before long, their low levels are not detectable by testing and the antibody blood tests done for diagnosing celiac disease will be negative. Over time, this inflammation wears down the billions of microscopic, finger-like projections that make up the lining and form the nutrient absorbing layer of the small bowel where all the nutrition in our food is absorbed. As the villi bet worn down, vitamin and mineral deficiencies typically develop because absorption is compromised. An endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to microscopically examine this damage is usually the second stage of celiac disease diagnosis. However, when people cut out gluten or cut back on it significantly ahead of time before the biopsy is done, the villous lining has already experienced some healing and the microscopic examination may be negative or inconclusive. I'm not trying to tell you what to do I just want you to understand what the consequences of going gluten free ahead of testing are as far as test results go so that you will either not waste your time in having the tests done or will be prepared for negative test results and the impact that will have on your dietary decisions. And, who are these "consultants" you keep talking about and what are their qualifications? You are in the unenviable position that many who joint this forum have found themselves in. Namely, having begun a gluten free diet before getting a proper diagnosis but unwilling to enter into the gluten challenge for valid testing because of the severity of the symptoms it would cause them.

      Thank you very much for your reply. I hadn't heard of celiac disease but began to notice a pattern of pain. I've been on the floor more than once with agonising pain but this was always put down to another abdominal problem consequently I've been on a roundabout of backwards and forwards with another consultant for many years. I originally questioned this diagnosis but was assured it was the reason for my pain. Many years later the consultant gave up and I had a new GP. I started to cut out certain food types ,reading packets then really started to cut out wheat and went lactose free. After a month I reintroduced these in one meal and ended screaming in agony the tearing and bloating pain. With this info and a swollen lymph node in my neck I went back to the GP.  I have a referral now . I have also found out that acidic food is causing the terrible pain . My thoughts are this is irritating any ulcers. I'm hoping that after a decade the outlook isn't all bad. My blood test came back with a high marker but I didn't catch what it was. My GP and I have agreed that I won't go back on wheat just for the test due to the pain , my swollen lymph node and blood test results.  Trying to remain calm for the referral and perhaps needed to be more forceful all those years ago but I'm not assertive and consultants can be overwhelming. Many thanks for your reply . Wishing you all the best.

      Wow! Fascinating info. Thanks so much! I really appreciate the guidance. @Spacepanther Over the years I have had rheumatologists do full lab work ups on me. They told me they had screened me for arthritis, lupus, and Lyme disease (all negative). In addition to joint pain and stiffness I had swelling in both knees that later moved to my elbow as well.  I also experience stiffness and pain in my neck and shoulders when it flares. I vomited fairly often growing up, but there wasn’t a real pattern to it and I didn’t know it wasn’t normal (thought people caught stomach viruses often).  I don’t usually have stomach symptoms immediately after eating gluten that I notice.  The only other joint condition I know of is fibromyalgia. Good luck! Hope you can get it figured out. I only assumed my joint symptoms were due to the celiac’s because it is under control for the most part on a gluten-free diet.  The rheumatologist also mentioned that some inflammatory/autoimmune diseases can be slow-moving and not detectable until they progress.
