Ingredients for Gluten-Free Halal Pancakes (Makes about 8 pancakes):

 

Here’s what you’ll require to make these yummy pancakes:

 

Dry Ingredients:

• One and a half cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour (make sure that it is made with xanthun gum or add half a teaspoon of it)
• Sugar, two tablespoons
• Baking Powder, 2 teaspoons (gluten-free)
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• Salt, ¼ teaspoon

Wet Ingredients:

• 1 cup buttermilk (or 1 cup milk + 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar as a substitute)
• Two large eggs are preferably free range or halal certified.
• ¼ cup melted butter or coconut oil for a dairy-free option.
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (make sure it is alcohol-free to adhere to the halal requirements)

Toppings:

• Pure maple syrup (ensure it is not gluten and halal ingredients)
• Fresh berries (optional)
• Whipped cream (optional)

 

Preparation Instructions:

 

Now that we have the ingredients ready, let’s start cooking!

Step 1: Combine dry ingredients In a large mixing bowl, sift together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This ensures that all the dry ingredients are blended well for the base of the pancakes to come out well.

 Step 2: Combine Liquid Ingredients In a different bowl, add buttermilk, eggs, melted butter or coconut oil, and vanilla extract and mix until combined. All components should be combined well in order to obtain a compliment batter fill.

Step 3: Merger of Wet and Dry Ingredients Step Combine the wet ingredients in a measuring cup and add them to the mixture in a slow, steady stream. Fold the batter together until combined. Fold in remaining dry ingredients, being careful not to stir too many times, or you could end up with stiff cakes. This batter should be slightly more lumpy than thick, which is also okay as it is the ideal case for making light pancakes.

Step 4: Heat the Pan Prepare to cook by heating a non-stick skillet or griddle at medium flame. Pour a little bit of butter or oil to the surface. If you want to do it healthier, use a cooking spray instead.

Step 5: Cook the pancakes When the skillet gets hot, pour ¼ cup of the batter for each pancake on the skillet. The batter you’ll see will spread a little bit. Let the pancakes cook for 2-3 minutes on the other side or when bubbles appear on the surface and the sides of the pancake look set. When it is ready, flip to the other side and finish cooking for a further 2 minutes or until golden in color.

Step 6: Serve with Maple Syrup Finally, pour maple syrup over the pancakes and place the pancakes in a stack on a plate. Fresh berries or whipped cream can also be added if you wish to pamper yourself or someone else.

Kitchen Top Delicacies Hints and Recommendations:

• Examine Your Flour: Not every type of gluten-free flour will be the same. Be sure to use a gluten-free all-purpose flour mixture that contains xanthan gum or add xanthan gum separately to achieve the best results.
• Maintain the Warmth of the Pancakes: If you are preparing a big batch of which it is not possible to make all the pancakes at once, place the already made pancakes in an oven set at 200°F (95°C) in order to keep them warm until the cooking of the remaining pancakes is done.
• Limit the Mixing: If you want to achieve the fluffiest pancakes ever, make sure you don’t mix your batter too much. A few bumps are okay and will help create a light and fluffy texture.
