Ingredients

• 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 0.5 tsp baking soda
• 2 tbsp granulated sugar
• 0.25 tsp salt
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 eggs
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup maple syrup
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 0.5 tsp cinnamon

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. It's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy, but avoid over-mixing.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a little butter or oil, if necessary.

Step 5

Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the heated pan for each pancake.

Step 6

Cook until bubbles begin to form on the surface and the edges start to look set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Carefully flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter, keeping the cooked pancakes warm in a low-temperature oven if desired.

Step 9

For the homemade syrup, combine the maple syrup, butter, and cinnamon in a small saucepan over medium heat.

Step 10

Stir continuously until the butter has melted and the ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 11

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 12

Remove from heat and let cool for a minute before serving.

Step 13

Serve the pancakes warm with a generous drizzle of the homemade syrup.
