RECIPE TIME! Basic Pancake Batter using Quinoa Flour

Basic Pancakes Batter using Quinoa Flour

This recipe is from the Cooking with Quinoa (Pattern) book that I so frequently will refer too. I’ve adjusted the recipe to include a dairy-free option to buttermilk I discovered on the internet aswell!

Pancake Batter
  • ·         1 cup Quinoa Flour
  • ·         2 tbsp Caster Sugar
  • ·         1 large egg (or egg substitute)
  • ·         1 ½ cups ‘Buttermilk’ (see alternative recipe below)
  • ·         1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • ·         ‘Butter’ for cooking

Buttermilk Alternative
  • ·         1 tbsp white vinegar or lemon juice
  • ·         1 cup ‘milk’


Sift flour and sugar into a bowl.  Make ‘Buttermilk’ and whisk with egg and vanilla until combined; slowly pour into the flour mixing until you have a smooth batter.
Heat a non stick pan until hot, add a little butter to the pan and when melted, pour in a small ladleful of pancake mixture. Swirl the pan around to form an even pancake and cook on both sides till evenly set.

Serve with toppings of your choice ie, golden/maple syrup, lemon and sugar, jam….go nuts! :D
