Instructions
-
Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, crack the egg and whisk it together with the sugar using a hand whisk until smooth and creamy. Once the egg and sugar are well combined, begin to slowly pour in the whole milk, continuing to whisk as you go. This will help create a smooth mixture, ensuring no lumps form.
-
Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the gluten-free rice flour to the wet ingredients. As you pour in the flour, use the whisk to incorporate it evenly into the liquid mixture. Be sure to stir until no dry pockets remain, and the batter is fully integrated.
-
Incorporate Baking Powder: Sprinkle the gluten-free baking powder into the batter and mix it well. This will help the pancakes rise and achieve a fluffy texture. Continue whisking until the batter is smooth and free from clumps.
-
Heat the Pan: Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add a small drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to the pan. Once the oil is heated, use a paper towel to wipe away any excess, leaving just a thin layer of oil to prevent the pancakes from sticking.
-
Cook the Pancakes: Using a ladle, pour a small amount of batter into the pan to form a pancake. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until small bubbles begin to appear on the surface. When the bubbles start to pop, use a spatula to flip the pancake over, cooking for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once the pancakes are cooked on both sides, remove them from the pan and stack them on a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining batter. You can keep the pancakes warm by covering them with a clean towel as you finish cooking the rest.
Your gluten-free pancakes are now ready to be served! Stack them high and top with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a sweet treat any time of the day!
