These pancakes were inspired by a recipe that I found on the King Arthur Flour Website. The original recipe was for a gluten free lemon cornmeal pancake.
I loved the idea of a gluten free pancake that was so simple, but I thought my kids would prefer something besides the lemon that the original recipe contained. So, I simply adapted this and went with a maple flavor instead and it worked great.
The maple went well with the cornmeal type pancake and we all loved them.
Now, these are a little different than a normal pancake. The texture is not quite the same, but we still really enjoyed them.
And I love the fact that these only contain a few ingredients.
Depending on your family size you may need to double this. If it is just my kids eating these, I make a single batch, but if the whole family is eating, I double it.
I hope you enjoy!

We’ve actually made the original recipe, and the lemon flavor was nice, but I agree with you, kids prefer maple!
I cooked these pancakes for my family the other day and they were a huge hit!!! My husband and my kids consumed them like they were going out of style. Later that day my husband remarked how he did not feel “icky full” and he had a ton of energy throughout the day. I recently decided to go gluten free just to see how it will be. So far I have found it to be fairly simple. I just have to read labels a bit more carefully. I am hoping the end results are good. Thanks for posting these recipes. I really love to use them. 🙂
I am so glad that you enjoyed these. My family loves them. I hope gluten free goes well for you. It does not work for everyone, but if it helps it is so worth it.
