ReplyDeleteI really need to try these for my GF family members...the pancake mix to keep on hand sounds great - did I miss the posting of it somewhere else?? it would be very handy...thanx for sharing such great photos, too.
ReplyDeleteRose... you can link to the pancake flour mix if you click on the word 'here' in the '1 cup pancake flour mix - line) and then scroll down to the bottom of the German Pancake recipe.
ReplyDeleteThese look delicious. It's nice to have this resource for gluten free recipes now that I need that too.
ReplyDeleteThank you - these look really good. Is it correct to think that I could use 2 cups flour instead of the rice flour and pancake mix?
ReplyDeleteThanks!
THANK YOU JULIE for the directive on the pancake mix: this blog/computer stuff is new for me, sorry! all kinds of new experiences along with all those great homey recipes!!!
ReplyDeleteElizabeth.. yes..you could substitute reg. wheat flour for the gluten-free flours... but the amount would be 2 1/2 cups (rather than 2)
ReplyDeleteand you are welcome, Rose.. we all learn from each other, don't we? smile
Hi Rose, I love trying new recipes & now that we have 3 members of the family on gluten free diets, I more cause to try new recipes! Yay! I have one question though, I have a granddaughter who is.allergic to nuts, is there something I could substitute or if need be, would it affect the taste if I.had to leave them out? Thanks for your help.
ReplyDeleteYes.. you could leave out the almonds.
