These easy to make from scratch gluten free buttermilk pancakes are light and fluffy! This is the best recipe for healthy and homemade pancakes. They make fixing breakfast simple and quick.

I like to serve these gluten free buttermilk pancakes with strawberry jam and yogurt, but they are delicious with whatever topping you prefer. Another combination we enjoy is sunbutter and maple syrup.

These pancakes are great for breakfast, but I also like to use them to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to pack in lunches. Using pancakes and waffles is a much more cost effective way to make gluten free sandwiches than buying gluten free bread.

Can gluten free buttermilk pancake batter be refrigerated?

Yes! You can make this batter the night before and then just give it a quick stir before making your pancakes. I've also made pancake batter before camping trips and I take it in a bottle to pour onto the campfire griddle. Making the batter ahead will help you to have an even quicker breakfast.

Are gluten free buttermilk pancakes healthy?

This recipe is very low in added sugars with just one tablespoon of maple syrup in the ingredients. I think these pancakes are a healthy breakfast option. Especially paired with some nut butter for protein and a healthy beverage.

How do I make buttermilk pancakes?

Buttermilk pancakes are really easy to make. I start by blending together the buttermilk, egg, maple syrup, vanilla and melted butter. Then I add in the sorghum flour, brown rice flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

Once all the ingredients are mixed together I dip out ¾ cup of batter at a time and place it into my pancake maker or a small frying pan. In the frying pan once the pancakes start to get bubbles in the batter I flip them and cook the other side. They are super simple!
