Gluten Free Banana Split Pancakes

    Nothing beats pancakes on a rainy Saturday morning!  And this recipe for banana split pancakes will help your family face it! This recipe comes from my daughter-in-law's family cookbook. All I had to do was switch out the flour.  They are delicious!  

   For a special company breakfast I put out things so people can make what I am calling banana split pancakes.  A college friend told me about a breakfast she had at a pancake house, and I thought that sounds so yummy. So I bought some Nutella, some bananas, strawberries, and some yogurt.  Below the pancake recipe are some directions on how to assemble them. 

Gluten Free Pancakes

1.  In a large mixing bowl:  
(1)  2 cups of gluten free flour:  I usually use 2/3 cup of rice flour, 2/3 cup of sorghum flour, and 2/3 cup of tapioca flour.
(2)  Stir in leavening and sugar:  8 tsp. baking powder (and that is not a typo!), 1/4 cup of sugar  (or less), and 1/2 tsp. of salt.

2.  In a smaller bowl mix together:  2 eggs, 1/3 cup of vegetable oil, 2 cups of milk, and 1 tsp. of vanilla.

3.  Combine ingredients:  
(1)  Slowly add the egg/milk mixture to the dry ingredients.  
(2)  Add more flour/milk to get just the right consistency. 

4.  Cook pancakes:  I put mine in an electric skillet at 350 and cook until bubbly and then flip over.

Banana Split Pancakes 

1.  First spread a layer of Nutella over the pancake.

2.  Put a few spoonfuls of Greek/plain yogurt on top of the Nutella.

3.  Scatter some sliced bananas and strawberries/strawberry jam on top of that.

4.  If you are using fresh strawberries, then you can pour a bit of maple syrup over the top if you like!
