Gluten Free Flap Jacks



Gluten Free Flap Jacks with Bacon and Maple flavored Syrup


My youngest son loves pancakes and even though he is not gluten intolerant, my husband is and I am also eating more gluten free. So tonight we did upside down day which is breakfast for dinner. These turned out great which I am excited about especially since my hubby is not a big fan of pancakes. So here is the recipe folks!  I did not take time to take pics of the process but it is fairly simple and easy to do. 

2 Cups Gluten Free Multi Purpose Flour
1 Cup corn meal
2 TBL baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup white sugar
4 egg yolks
1 Tbl sugar for egg whites
 1/4 cup oil
1 tsp of vanilla 

2 cups of heavy cream
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp maple flavoring

Whip until cream forms stiff peaks and garnish pancakes with a flourish!

* Because I was incorporating bacon I also threw in a small dash of chili pepper and some all spice to liven the flavors a bit. As gluten free has a tendency to be a little blah I try to liven things up and give taste buds something to liven up about. It was mild enough that the kids could not tell but for more sophisticated pallets it was a nice addition. 

Whip egg whites with mixer until really stiff

Incorporate wet ingredients with dry and mix well. Slowly and gently stir in egg whiles until mixture seems fluffy. 
Heat skillet and lightly oil and when pan is hot start with a ladle of pancake mix.

Makes 12- 15
