Spiced Gluten-Free Pancakes with Cardamom and Saffron
Light and fluffy gluten-free pancakes infused with the aromatic flavors of cardamom and saffron, a Saudi breakfast treat made safe for those with gluten sensitivities.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 cup Almond Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cardamom, ground
- 1/4 teaspoon Saffron threads, crushed
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 1/4 cups Milk (Dairy or Non-Dairy)
- 2 tablespoons Melted Butter or Coconut Oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- 1In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour, 1/2 cup Almond Flour, 2 teaspoons Baking Powder, 2 tablespoons Sugar, 1 teaspoon ground Cardamom, and 1/4 teaspoon crushed Saffron threads. Whisk these dry ingredients together until they are evenly mixed.
- 2In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the 2 large Eggs, 1 1/4 cups Milk (Dairy or Non-Dairy), 2 tablespoons Melted Butter or Coconut Oil, and 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract until well combined.
- 3Pour the wet ingredients from the medium bowl into the large bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a whisk or spoon until just combined. It is okay if there are a few small lumps; do not overmix the batter.
- 4Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. The pan is ready when a drop of water sizzles and evaporates quickly.
- 5For each pancake, pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot griddle. Leave some space between the pancakes.
- 6Cook each pancake for 2-3 minutes on the first side, until small bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the second side, until golden brown and cooked through.
- 7Serve the Spiced Gluten-Free Pancakes warm with your favorite toppings.
