Gluten Free Honey and Banana pancakes

Jump to Recipe

Gluten free pancakes are quite easy to make. You just need to take a bit of care when cooking them. Nothing worse than pancakes that are a bit charred on the bottom! Mind you, the rule is that the first one is usually just a test case. So don’t get too disheartened if that first one isn’t the way you’d like it.

Ideas for toppings

As you can see in the photo, I’ve used whole strawberries. And, to add a little bit extra luxury, have caramelised them as well. How do you do that? Well, it’s super easy. You can even use the same pan that you cook the pancakes in. Less washing up! And make double the amount because they are great on your muesli the next morning. My strawberries are from a local organic berry farm, Longford Berries. Every summer we go picking masses of berries and fill our freezer ready for the winter months.

So, take your whole strawberries (or halved if they are huge), melt 30g of butter in your pan, add a teaspoon of brown sugar, and gently toss the strawberries around in it for about 2 – 3 minutes. You don’t want them getting too soft. They look great if you just get a nice glaze on them without them going mushy. At the last minute you can toss through a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar too. Hint – these are great on top of a cheesecake too!
