Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or butter, for cooking
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then whisk in the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; the batter will be slightly lumpy.
Heat a griddle or large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Lightly coat with vegetable oil or butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per hotcake onto the griddle. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Carefully flip the hotcakes and cook until the other side is golden brown and the hotcake is cooked through, about 2 more minutes.
Keep the cooked hotcakes warm in a low oven while repeating with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the pan as needed.
Serve with your choice of toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
