Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Fine cornmeal
- 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Sugar (optional)
- 1.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or other non-dairy milk)
- 0.25 cup Applesauce (unsweetened, as an egg substitute)
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Oil (e.g., coconut oil or avocado oil), plus extra for cooking
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar (if using).
In a separate bowl, combine the almond milk, applesauce, vanilla extract, and oil. Mix well until smooth.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or whisk until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with oil using a brush or paper towel.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread the batter into a circular shape if needed.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh berries, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
