Gluten Free Cinnamon Chip Pancakes

Teresa Ambra
Gluten Free Cinnamon Chip Pancakes are amazing. These super sweet pancakes are made with cinnamon and cinnamon chips and then drizzled with maple syrup. Wonderful choice for weekend, company or holiday breakfasts. You can make these with gluten free flour or use regular flour, as you prefer. If you enjoy cinnamon, these pancakes are for you!

Equipment

  • 1 large skillet or griddle
  • 1 spatula
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups gluten free flour (I prefer Cup4Cup)
  • 1 cup 2% milk
  • 1 tbsp. cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp. vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp. coconut oil or avocado oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup cinnamon chips plus more for garnish
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup for garnish (but the pancakes are sweet enough without it!)

Instructions
 

  • Whisk together the pancake mix, milk, egg, cinnamon, vanilla, and coconut oil.
  • If you like your pancakes thinner, add an additional ½ cup of milk.
  • Heat griddle or skillet.
  • Lightly grease or spray with cooking spray.
  • Spoon pancake mix carefully into skillet.
  • Sprinkle cinnamon chips over top of the pancakes and press down with your finger or fork to get the chips submerged into the batter as much as possible.
  • That way when you turn the pancakes the cinnamon chips will not stick and scorch on the bottom of the pan.
  • Cook pancakes on medium heat about 4-5 minutes or until bubbles form on the top and the pancake is almost cooked through (but don’t let the pancakes brown on the bottom!)
  • Turn pancakes over and brown other side for about 1-2 minutes.
  • To serve, place pancakes on top of plates.
  • Sprinkle with more cinnamon chips.
  • Drizzle with maple syrup.
  • Makes 6 5-6” pancakes.

Notes

NOTE: Pressing the chips into the pancake with a fork will prevent the cinnamon chips from sticking and scorching on the bottom of the pan.
 
 
NOTE: These are very thick pancakes. Add an additional half cup of milk if you want thinner pancakes.
 
NOTE: Back in 2013 Pamela's pancake and baking mix was the only gluten free flour available in the grocery stores. The taste is odd and the mix doesn't correspond one-to-one with regular flour. Now in 2023, there are plenty of good gluten free flours to choose from. Even Walmart has a Great Value Brand gluten free that is superior in my opinion.
