Quick and Easy Gluten-free Pancakes

My whole family LOVES these pancakes and the recipe is for a double batch.  I freeze what we don't eat right away then the kids pull them out and pop them in the toaster oven for an easy breakfast!

4 c. Pamela's Products Baking Mix
3 c. Water
2 t. Vanilla extract
4 Eggs
1/4 c. ground Flax seed (2 T. whole, ground in coffee grinder)
Canola oil to lightly grease pan

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl until there are no lumps.  Pour 1/4 c. onto a lightly greased (canola oil) hot griddle or pan.  Only flip once.  Serve with your favorite toppings.

*Today I made this recipe and swapped out the vanilla extract with almond extract and added 1 tsp of cinnamon.  The whole family loved it!

Makes approx. 24

Cornmeal Pancakes

These delicious pancakes are based on a recipe I found in the cookbook Allergy-free Recipes for Kids by Publications International, Ltd.  My daughter and I love them!

1 cup cornmeal
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup Almond Milk
1 egg, beaten
2 tbsp butter, melted
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Mix (http://www.allergenfreemom.com/2013/04/gluten-free-all-purpose-flour-mix.html)

Combine cornmeal, sugar and salt in a medium bowl.  Stir in boiling water, cover, and let stand 10 minutes.  Stir flour mix, almond milk, egg, butter, and baking powder into cornmeal until smooth.  Heat large skillet over medium heat and brush with canola oil.  Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter per pancake and cook until pancake bubbles and edges are firm.  Turn once and cook another 1-2 minutes.  Serve with powdered sugar, syrup or other toppings of your choice.

The Best Gluten Free Waffles

If you are Gluten Free, you know how hard it is to find a yummy recipe for waffles etc.  I really love Pamela's Products Gluten Free Baking Mix and this recipe was adapted from the back of the bag.  My (picky) kids and hubby love them!  This recipe makes a giant batch of 24 waffles.  I like to freeze them so they are easy to pull out and toast for a quick breakfast just like the ones sold in the freezer section of grocery store.

4 cups of Pamela's Products Gluten Free Baking Mix
8 eggs or the equivalent amount of egg beaters
3 cups water
1/4 cup canola oil
2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 cup whole flax seeds ground in a coffee grinder

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl until there are no lumps.  Pour into waffle maker and cook until golden brown.
