gluten-free pancakes for kids

make gluten-free pancakes with kids

I don’t think of myself as a traditional person and I don’t think of our family as having traditions, at least none that we’ve been conscious of making. But there is one thing that happens more often than not (which is basically a tradition, right?) at our place, and that’s Sunday pancakes made by Mark.

Rose is usually her dad’s number one helper with cooking just about anything, and Sunday pancakes are no exception.When Max was diagnosed with coeliac disease in mid-2017, they just replaced the wheat self-raising flour with gluten-free flour. Usually they use a supermarket brand.

When Max was diagnosed with coeliac disease in mid-2017 we just replaced the wheat self-raising flour with gluten-free flour.

I asked Rose what her favourite part of making pancakes is, and she said mixing the ingredients, and pouring the batter into the frypan. I think it makes her to feel capable and confident to help in this way.

Gluten-free Pancakes

Ingredients

2 cups whole milk
2 cups gluten-free self-raising flour
3 eggs
1 tablespoon natural yogurt
Love (Mark said. Aww)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 50 degrees.
Crack the eggs  into a large mixing bowl, add the tablespoon of yoghurt and whisk.  Alternate pouring in one cup of flour and one cup of milk while stirring with a whisk or a fork until the mixture is smooth.

2. Heat two frypans to three quarters heat. Put one teaspoon of butter in each pan and melt so pan is coated with butter to grease the pan. Carefully wipe off excess butter with a paper towel.

3. Pour a ladle full of batter on the pan. Wait until your helper tells you it’s time to turn the pancake over. Your helper will know it’s the right time because they will see bubbles appear on the pancake batter. Cook until light golden on both sides.

4. Place the cooked pancake on an oven-proof plate and pop it in the oven to keep warm.

5. Repeat 3. and 4. until finished cooking the mixture.

5. Serve with butter, maple syrup or lemon and sugar.

 

Notes

This recipe is made especially for cooking with kids (but you can make it without them if, like me, you don’t have the patience).

Mark says good jobs for the kids include:
Cracking the eggs
Stirring the mixture
Watching for bubbles

We usually have our pancakes with maple syrup and butter, lemon and sugar, or strawberry jam. Sometimes we have them with maple syrup and bacon (my fave). Max prefers lemon and sugar, Rose likes maple syrup.

Let’s Hang Out

  • ‘everything in the world comes down to time in the end. happiness is a time you’re looking forward to, or time you look back on. it’s all about time passing.’

i was chatting with my grown-up son the other day and we were agreeing that right now, sometimes it feels like time has just... stopped. i have a lot of space to just be. sometimes i find myself reliving happy moments in my mind.

it’s interesting the things that come back to you. the clarity that perspective brings. the narrowing down, and the sifting through. what rises to the surface, when the noise falls away.

this one and her brother couldn’t be loving #stayhome life more. they’ve entertained each other and us (including writing, directing and performing a post-apocalyptic themed play), they’ve embraced having their dad and i take turns teaching them (they made up their own anthem for homeschool), and while they’ve spent more than their fair share of iso school hols on screens, basically,
during these strange and trying times, they’ve been, and are, a joy and a delight ✨
here i tried to take a portrait of rose and she turned the camera on me. because that’s what your children will do, right?
  • a couple of weeks ago i tried to fathom the current state of things as a whole. mistake. being newly single and separated from the little kids for part of the week adds another layer to things. this is just my deal right now. everyone has their own stuff going on. it’s a lot. 
never have i ever spent so much time in public parks and gardens. i think we all have a greater appreciation of the world that isn’t human right now. the other day, apropos of nothing, rose said to me: i love nature. and i feel like humans just build things and wreck everything. they don’t care about nature unless it helps them. 
max started telling her how she could help (regeneration programs) i started talking about voting.
but mostly i hugged her, and said yeah, that’s true. cause humans. sheesh.

comparatively speaking, we’re doing okay here. but i share this now, cause when i read of other’s struggles, for a moment i feel less alone. maybe hearing mine will do that for you too 🤍
