Ingredients

• 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Milk (or dairy-free milk for lactose intolerant)
• 1 Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Butter (or dairy-free alternative), melted
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil or non-stick spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, gently stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Step 4

Fold in the melted butter, incorporating it gently into the batter.

Step 5

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or non-stick spray.

Step 6

Once the skillet is hot, pour tablespoon-sized amounts of batter onto the skillet, forming small pancakes.

Step 7

Cook for about 2 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Carefully flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked mini pancakes to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while repeating the process with the remaining batter.

Step 9

Serve the mini pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruits, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
