These delightful Gluten-Free Cheese Pancakes are a savory twist on traditional breakfast fare, perfect for those with dietary restrictions or simply seeking a unique dish. Made with a blend of gluten-free all-purpose flour and cornmeal, these pancakes boast a soft yet hearty texture that pairs beautifully with the rich flavors of cheddar cheese and optional fresh chives. A dash of honey adds a subtle sweetness, while melted butter ensures a luscious and golden finish when cooked. Quick to prepare in under 35 minutes, these pancakes are an ideal choice for breakfast, brunch, or even a light dinner. Serve them warm with a dollop of sour cream, extra cheese, or fresh herbs for a flavor-packed, gluten-free treat the whole family will love!
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Stir until evenly mixed.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and honey until well combined. Gradually mix in the melted butter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives, if using, until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with oil or butter.
Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges appear slightly dry.
Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as sour cream, extra cheese, or a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
