Carrot Oat Pancakes Gluten Free Recipes

CARROT OATMEAL PANCAKES

Steps:

• Stir together the ground flaxseed meal with the water to make the flax egg in a small bowl. Let sit in the fridge for 15 minutes to thicken.
• Pulse oats in a blender or food processor for a few seconds until they have a flour-like texture.
• Combine the oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, and salt in a bowl. Sift of whisk them to avoid clumps. Set aside.
• In a blender, mix the cashew milk, flax-egg, applesauce, vanilla extract, ¼ cup of grated carrots, and maple syrup if using.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix them until getting the pancake batter consistency (don't overmix). Let the batter rest for at least 10 minutes, and then add the orange zest and gently fold the rest of the grated carrots.
• Heat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium-low heat.
• Scoop up the batter (about 1/4 cup) and drop it into the skillet, forming small-medium-sized pancakes. Flip them when you see the edges well-formed and dry (and they are not shiny like the rest of the surface) or some bubbles forming on top. Cook the other side until the pancake is golden brown. Repeat these steps with the rest of the preparation.
• Serve warm with toppings of your choice, and enjoy!

CARROT OAT PANCAKES (GLUTEN-FREE)

Steps:

• Blend together buttermilk, egg, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon, then add oat flour (make in your blender with about 1 1/3 - 1 1/2 cups quick oats) and blend for a few seconds. Add the shredded carrot (squeeze the juice from it and pack it into your measuring spoons), baking powder and baking soda and blend just for a couple of seconds. Immediately cook 1/4 cup batches on a greased (butter or margarine) skillet on medium-low heat until they are full of bubbles, the bottom is golden and it`s easily flippable. Cook the other side until done. Serve with maple syrup or room-temperature applesauce/jelly.

GLUTEN-FREE HEART-FRIENDLY CARROT PANCAKES

Steps:

• Pulse walnuts in a food processor or blender until finely crushed; transfer to a large bowl. Whisk oat flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cream of tartar, and salt with the walnuts.
• Puree carrots in a food processor; transfer to a separate bowl. Whisk orange juice, water, egg, and walnut oil with the pureed carrots until smooth; stir into the dry ingredients to make a rich and hearty batter. Set batter aside to rest for 5 minutes.
• Heat a small amount of canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Tilt skillet to coat cooking surface with oil.
• Stir the batter again with the whisk. Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to spoon out the batter, but do not fill the measuring cup. Drop small amounts of the batter into the skillet.
• Cook pancakes until the edges start to look dry, 3 to 5 minutes; turn and continue cooking until the other side is browned, 3 to 5 minutes more.
