This gluten free pancakes recipe was contributed by Joy Bauer, nutritionist for NBC’s The Today Show. Joy is well known for her healthy recipes. I love that these are made with lots of egg white, though you’d never know. I didn’t have any gluten free quick cooking oats on hand so I soaked regular gluten free oats in the egg whites for about 10 minutes and used agave instead of granulated sugar. I also chose to cover the pan to ensure they cooked all of the way through. Usually with regular oats you need a tad bit more liquid. I think I’ll add a bit of water, too next time, or perhaps some of my homemade almond milk. I topped my pancake off with some pure organic maple syrup. They were very yummy gluten free pancakes for being so very healthy! Enjoy!
