Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1.25 cups Buttermilk
- 2 large Eggs
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- as needed for cooking Vegetable oil or nonstick spray
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula or whisk until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—some lumps are perfectly fine.
If making pancakes: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with vegetable oil or nonstick spray. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
If making waffles: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the waffle iron with vegetable oil or nonstick spray. Pour enough batter to cover the center of the iron (usually about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on the size). Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden and crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh berries, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.
