Flax Pancakes Recipe
For the flours, I put 3 Tablespoons of the Hi-fiber Maize Cornstarch and topped the 3/4 cup with GF AP flour, then put 3 Tablespoons Oat flour in the next 3/4 cup, filling it with Ancient Grains whole grain flour. I used 1 tsp. Xanthan gum with the flours. The batter was thick, and using your batter whisk I added water, 2 Tablespoons at a time.
This is when the whole thing turned hilarious. That batter was like a yeast batter, and moved around the bowl like it was an oiled bowl and it was trying to get away from me! I tried to cook a pancake when I finally managed to mix in about 1/2 cup water. It was perfect, but a bit too thick yet. To shorten the tale, I can tell you it took about 1 to 1 1/2 cups of water, and milk together (I switched to nonfat milk for added nutrition).
The batter seemed just fine, only thicker, and with great elasticity. I made the pancakes, and they were just like the picture, and were light, great soft texture, and perfectly delicious. I ended up with 20 pancakes.I froze the leftovers, and then I made brunch today with some 'melted' blueberries and whipped cream. Heaven on a plate. Now I know what to expect, I am encouraged to continue to convert some floured recipes to non-wheat. Xanthan gum or both,
The Xanthan gum is added to each converted recipe in all instructions, I have found, proportioned out according to the product made. Pancakes were to be 3/4 tsp. I used less. As I watched the batter and could see it wasn't 'crashing', I continued to carefully work it until it made exactly what I wanted. I realize a cake or cookie may not be as forgiving. But so far, so good! I will keep trying. I prefer converting over just using hi carb GF alternatives for most things since it is only wheat of which I am intolerant/allergic. These certainly did the trick!
I loved them, and use that same trick to this day. The potato pancakes you see here were born from another kind of leftover potatoes…the end of a box of instant potato buds. One advantage this version has over the freshly mashed one is those contain milk and butter, which makes it much harder to hold together when fried.
I'm not saying you should just switch to instant, but I felt like I had to find some shred of a culinary advantage. So, if you have some instant potatoes in the pantry, maybe consider giving this a try. Otherwise, remember this the next time you do find yourself in a similar situation. I mean, who would go out and buy a box just to specifically make a batch of these crispy, crusty, delicious patties,
In a hot non-stick frying pan add a small knob of butter. Take a cup of the mixture and pour it into the pan just coating the bottom of the pan. Not to thick just about enough to cover the whole surface. Cook until it appears to lift on the edges and then toss the pancake over if you are feeling brave or use a spatula for convenience and safety. Cook this side, then slide out onto a warmed plate. Squeeze the lemon over the pancake and then sprinkle some sugar over it.
Roll it up and serve. There are thousands of other toppings you could use. Continue until all the mix is finished or everyone is full, whichever comes first. Usually you will have to make a second batch. I hope you like these fast dessert recipes and ideas for lower calorie pancakes. They are just as tasty and much more fun to make.
