In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, salt, and granulated sugar.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and add the milk, water, and vanilla extract. Mix well until combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Continue mixing until you have a smooth batter.
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and add to the batter, whisking again to combine thoroughly.
Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes to allow the flour to hydrate.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease it with butter or oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the pan, lifting and tilting the pan to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer.
Cook the palacsinta for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the underside is golden brown.
Flip the palacsinta carefully using a spatula and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute on the other side.
Transfer the cooked palacsinta to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the gluten-free palacsinta warm, with your choice of sweet fillings like jam, Nutella, or fresh fruit, or savory fillings like ricotta cheese and spinach.
