Gluten-Free Carrot Cake Pancakes

Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 8 pancakes

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 2/3 cup almond milk or regular milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup plus more for serving
  • 2/3 cup brown or white rice flour
  • 1 cup almond meal
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups finely grated carrots
  • Coconut oil butter or Earth balance, for cooking
  • Vanilla nonfat Greek yogurt or crème fraiche for serving

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, and maple syrup. Stir in the flour, almond meal, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Fold in the carrots.
  • Place a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Lightly grease it with oil or butter. Add the batter to the pan, ¼ cup for each pancake. You’ll make 2-3 at a time depending on the size of your pan. Cook 2 minutes, or until small bubbles start to appear on the surface. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2 minutes, until the pancakes are firm and lightly browned.
  • Serve the pancakes with maple syrup and yogurt or creme fraiche. Garnish with a dash of cinnamon.
