Orange Millet Pancakes Gluten Free Food

FLUFFY GLUTEN-FREE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Whisk the gluten-free flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl. Add the milk, egg, oil, and vanilla extract. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. (Batter can rest up to 30 minutes.)
• Heat a nonstick griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the griddle with oil or butter.
• Spoon about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until the edges look set and bubbles appear all over the surface of the pancake, about two minutes. To check for doneness, lift the edge of the pancake with a spatula. It should be golden brown.
• Flip the pancake and cook until golden brown, about two additional minutes.Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve with butter and syrup.

GLUTEN FREE PANCAKE MIX

Steps:

• Add all dry ingredients to a bowl and whisk until well combined. You could also sift the mixture if you have one on hand, but do so several times to ensure it's thoroughly mixed.
• To make pancakes (according to the amounts as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size), whisk 1 large egg, 1 cup of buttermilk or milk, and 1 Tbsp melted butter or coconut oil. Then add in 1 cup of mix. If your batter appears too thick (it should stream out of a measuring cup, not glop), add more buttermilk.
• Let batter rest for 5-10 minutes and preheat griddle to medium heat. Lightly grease surface and add 1/4 cup measurements of the batter. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until bubbles form on top and the edges appear dry, checking around the 2 minute mark to ensure they aren't too brown. Adjust heat as needed.
• Cook for 1-3 minutes more or until the other side is brown and the pancake feels firm when lightly pressed with a spatula. One batch should yield about 10 pancakes.
• Serve with butter and honey or syrup. Store leftovers in the freezer. To reheat, simply thaw for 30 seconds in the microwave and then toast in a toaster until warmed through.

MILLET PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine flour and baking soda.
• Add Fizzy Lizzy and oil and stir.
• Heat cast iron skillet and brush with oil.
• Ladle batter into skillet to form 2-3 inch pancakes. Turn quckly so as not to brown too darkly.
• They will be slightly crumbly, but are yummy with jam.

GLUTEN-FREE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Put the flour in a bowl and make a well in the centre. Crack the egg in the middle and pour in a quarter of the milk. Use an electric or balloon whisk to thoroughly combine the mixture. Once you have a paste, mix in another quarter and once lump free, mix in the remaining milk. Leave to rest for 20 mins. Stir again before using.
• Heat a small non-stick frying pan with a knob of butter. When the butter starts to foam, pour a small amount of the mixture into the pan and swirl around to coat the base - you want a thin layer. Cook for a few mins until golden brown on the bottom, then turn over and cook until golden on the the other side. Repeat until you have used all the mixture, stirring the mixture between pancakes and adding more butter for frying as necessary.
• Serve with agave syrup and a squeeze of orange juice or your pancake filling of choice.

ORANGE MILLET PANCAKES (GLUTEN-FREE)

Steps:

• Pulse the sugar in a spice grinder or food processor a few times, to make the sugar finer, but not a powder.
• Over medium-high heat, toast the 1/4 of whole millet in a dry skillet for about 5 minutes, or until the millet begins to pop and gives off a toasty aroma. Set aside.
• Combine the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, beat the egg then add vanilla, milk, zest and stir to combine. Whisk in the olive oil.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until combined.
• Whisk in the 1/4 cup of toasted millet.
• Heat a cast iron pan or griddle over medium heat and allow to get very hot. Rub the pan with a little bit of safflower oil.
• *Before scooping or pouring each pancake, stir the batter and scoop from the bottom, as the whole millet will settle.
• Scoop or pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the griddle and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side.
• Repeat until batter is used up.
• Meanwhile, over medium-low heat, combine the maple syrup and orange juice to gently warm it. Drizzle over pancakes and garnish with an orange slice.
