Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons ground flax seed
- 6 tablespoons water
- 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose baking flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 large ripe bananas mashed
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon gluten-free vanilla extract
- Grapeseed or coconut oil for cooking
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the ground flax seed and water to make a flax egg. Allow this mixture to sit and thicken while you’re preparing the rest of the recipe, about 5 to 8 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the mashed bananas, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract together.
- Add the flax mixture (flax egg) to the wet mixture and whisk to incorporate, then pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry mixture and stir to combine.
- Heat a pancake griddle or skillet to just above medium heat. Add enough oil to coat the surface.
- Measure about ⅛ cup of batter and pour it onto the hot griddle/skillet until you run out of room, being careful not to crowd your pancakes. Cook until several bubbles rise to the top of the pancake and the sides firm up.
- Flip the pancakes and continue cooking until they're cooked through, another minute or two.
- Repeat for remaining batter. Serve with sliced bananas, pure maple syrup, nut butters, jam, or your favorite pancake toppings.

Notes
- Just about any gluten-free all-purpose flour will work for this recipe, but use brands (such as King Arthur) that do not contain xanthan gum.
