EASY Gluten Free Fluffy American Pancakes
Soft and fluffy gluten-free American pancakes made with simple pantry ingredients.
Ingredients
- 200 g gluten-free self-raising flour
- 1½ teaspoons gluten-free baking powder
- 1 tablespoon caster sugar
- 300 ml full-fat milk
- 2 large free-range eggs
- Vegetable oil or butter for frying
- Maple syrup for serving
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free self-raising flour, gluten-free baking powder, and caster sugar.
- In a jug, beat together the eggs and milk until well combined.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gradually pour in most of the wet mixture while whisking until smooth.
- The batter should be thick yet pourable. If needed, add the remaining milk mixture until you reach the right consistency.
- Heat a lightly greased frying pan over medium-low heat.
- Spoon about 2 tablespoons of batter into the pan for each Gluten-Free Fluffy American Pancake.
- Cook for 1–2 minutes until bubbles appear and the surface begins to set.
- Flip carefully and cook for another 30–60 seconds until golden.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, lightly greasing the pan between batches.
- Serve warm with maple syrup and your favorite toppings.
Notes
- Full-fat milk creates a richer texture, but semi-skimmed milk also works.
- Dairy-free milk can be substituted if needed.
- Serve with maple syrup, fresh berries, yogurt, honey, or nut butter.
- For extra fluffy pancakes, avoid pressing them with a spatula while cooking.
