Pancakes!

Hi Everyone :)
This morning we felt like pancakes but since Irish Rose isn't here to tell us what recipes she used for gluten free pancakes we had to go looking for a recipe.  Sharpi found one but I was a bit turned off by the description; "Make it with the great flavor of barley or the flavor and chewiness of oats."  The chewiness of oats was the part that turned me off because I'm not a big fan of nutty things in my food all that much and that just sounded like it would be nutty!
Any who, I found a recipe that looked simple but it didn't sound like it would make enough for everyone so I doubled it (yeah now we can have them for lunch and supper too, don't double it!) and they turned out really well.
I'm not one to try new recipes because I already mess up on the ones I've used many times over and over again.  But these turned out very nice and Mom said she liked the slightly chewy texture of them.  Here's the recipe, I got it off of  About.com.

Ingredients:

  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 tbsp honey, fruit juice concentrate or sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups brown rice flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

Preparation:

Beat egg until frothy. Add buttermilk, oil, and honey and beat until well blended.
In another bowl mix brown rice flour and the remaining dry ingredients. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the liquids. Stir until well blended. Do not over stir. Batter will be stightly lumpy. (You can stir it until it's smooth)

Lightly grease a frying pan and fry pancakes.

Well that was my big adventure for today:)
