You can enjoy gluten-free vegan pancakes.
If you are suffering from gluten intolerance or simply want to cut gluten from your diet, you might be hard-pressed to find tasty recipes for favorites like pancakes. If you also make the lifestyle choice to eat a vegan diet or are allergic to milk and eggs, you face even fewer choices. However, vegan gluten-free pancakes can taste just like "regular" pancakes if you use quality ingredients and materials.
Instructions
1. Mix dry ingredients. Start with rice flour, then add sugar, baking soda, baking powder and a pinch of xanthan gum. You can add spices to your pancake mix such as a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg.
2. Place the pan on the stove, and turn the burner to medium. Oil the pan, or use a non-stick cooking spray. Canola oil and olive oil work best for making a healthful, gluten-free vegan pancake.
3. Add applesauce and 1.5 cup of water to your mixture, and test the batter's thickness. If you prefer a slightly thinner pancake add another 1/4 cup of water. If you enjoy flavored pancakes, add fresh or frozen fruit or chocolate chips. Check the label of any added ingredients to make sure they are gluten-free and vegan. Make any pieces of fruit small. Add about 1/2 cup of these mix-ins for best results.
4. Pour batter onto the pan using approximately 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Allow pancake to cook for about three minutes, and flip to the other side. Flip after another three minutes, and give pancakes one more minute on each side, or cook until golden brown.
