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.

Hey Cruiser Bob--

Those look good! I'm going to try them wrapped around some berries :)

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!

Thanks everyone!!!

I'm hoping one of the recipes will work out :)

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.

      I had the same thing happen to me at around your age, and to this day it's the most painful experience I've ever had. For me it was the right side of my head, above my ear, running from my nerves in my neck. For years before my outbreak I felt a tingling sensation shooting along the exact nerves that ended up exactly where the shingles blisters appeared. I highly recommend the two shot shingles vaccine as soon as your turn 50--I did this because I started to get the same tingling sensations in the same area, and after the vaccines I've never felt that again.  As you likely know, shingles is caused by chicken pox, which was once though of as one of those harmless childhood viruses that everyone should catch in the wild--little did they know that it can stay in your nervous system for your entire life, and cause major issues as you age.

      Thanks for the info. I recently moved to CA from Wyoming and in that western region the Costco and Sam's /Walmart Brands have many nuts and more products that are labeled gluten free. I was told it's because those products are packaged and processed  in different  plants. Some plants can be labeled  gluten free because the plant does not also package gluten products and they know that for example the trucks, containers equipment are not used to handle wheat, barely or Rye. The Walmart butter in the western region says gluten free but not here. Most of The Kirkland and Members Mark brands in CA say they are from Vietnam. That's not the case in Wyoming and Colorado. I've spoken to customer service at the stores here in California. They were not helpful. I check labels every time I go to the store. The stores where I am are a Sh*tshow. The Magalopoly grocery chain Vons/Safeway/Albertsons, etc. are the same. Fishers and Planters brands no longer say gluten free. It could be regional. There are nuts with sugar coatings and fruit and nut mixes at the big chains that are labeled gluten free but I don't want the fruit or sugar.  It's so difficult I am considering moving again. I thought it would be easier to find safe food in a more populated area. It's actually worse.  I was undiagnosed for most of my life but not because I didn't try to figure it out. So I have had all the complications possible. I don't have any spare organs left.  No a little gluten will hurt you. The autoimmune process continues to destroy your organs though you may not feel it. If you are getting a little all the time and as much as we try we probably all are and so the damage is happening. Now the FDA has pretty much abandoned celiacs. There are no requirements for labeling for common allergens on medications. All the generic drugs made outside the US are not regulated for common allergens and the FDA is taking the last gluten free porcine Thyroid med, NP Thyroid, off the market in 2026. I was being glutened by a generic levothyroxin. The insurance wouldn't pay for the gluten free brand any longer because the FDA took them all off their approved formulary. So now I am paying $147 out of pocket for NP Thyroid but shortly I will have no safe choice. Other people with allergies should be aware that these foreign generic pharmaceutical producers are using ground shellfish shell as pill coatings and anti-desicants. The FDA knows this but  now just waits for consumers to complain or die. The take over of Wholefoods by Amazon destroyed a very reliable source of good high quality food for people with allergies and for people who wanted good reliably organic food. Bezos thought  he could make a fortune off people who were paying alot for organic and allergen free food by substituting cheap brands from Thailand. He didn't understand who the customers were who were willing to pay more for that food and why. I went from spending hundreds to nothing because Bezo removed every single trusted brand that I was buying. Now they are closing Whole foods stores across the country. In CA, Mill Valley store (closed July 2025) and the National Blvd. store in West Los Angeles (closed October 2025). The Cupertino store will close.  In recent years I have learned to be careful and trust no one. I have been deleberately glutened in a restaurant that was my favorite (a new employee). The Chef owner was not in the kitchen that night. I've had  a metal scouring pad cut up over my food.The chain offered gluten free dishes but it only takes one crazy who thinks you're a problem as a food fadist. Good thing I always look. Good thing they didn't do that to food going to a child with a busy mom.  I give big tips and apologize for having to ask in restaurants but mental illness seem to be rampant. I've learn the hard way.          I don't buy any processed food that doesn't say gluten free.  I am a life long Catholic. I worked for the Church while at college. I don't go to Church anymore because the men at the top decided Jesus is gluten. The special hosts are gluten less not gluten free. No I can't drink wine after people with gluten in their mouth and a variety of deadly germs. I have been abandoned and excluded by my Church/Family.  Having nearly died several times, safe food is paramount. If your immune system collapses as mine did, you get sepsis. It can kill you very quickly. I spent 5 days unconscious and had to have my appendix and gall bladder removed because they were necrotic. I was 25. They didn't figure out I had celiac till I was 53. No one will take the time to tell you what can happen when your immune system gets overwhelmed from its constant fighting the gluten and just stops. It is miserable that our food is processed so carelessly. Our food in many aspects is not safe. And the merging of all the grocery chains has made it far worse. Its a disaster. Krogers also recently purchased Vitacost where I was getting the products I could no longer get at Whole Foods. Kroger is eliminating those products from Vitacost just a Bezos did from WF. I am looking for reliable and certified sources for nuts. I have lived the worst consequences of the disease and being exposed unknowingly and maliciously. Once I was diagnosed I learned way more than anyone should have to about the food industry.  I don't do gray areas. And now I dont eat out except very rarely.  I have not eaten fast food for 30 years before the celiac diagnosis. Gluten aside..... It's not food and it's not safe.  No one has got our backs. Sharing safe food sources is one thing we can do to try to be safe.

      Thank you kindly for your response. I have since gotten the other type of bloods done and am awaiting results.
