GFCF Sugar Free Pancakes

GFCF? What's that? GFCF stands for Gluten Free Casein Free which stems from the gluten free casein free diet. A gluten free casein free diet simply means that there isn't any wheat flour or dairy products in the diet. The reason I decided to include this type of recipe is that there are many people who are allergic to gluten and or dairy and sometimes this makes eating a bit more challenging especially in the West Indies and more so Trinidad and Tobago.


And also having a relative who is also allergic to gluten and casein, we decided to come up with some GFCF recipes of our own with that distinctly Trini twist. Yes! This GFCF recipe is a Simply Trini Cooking original. One that my wife worked on for some time to get the ingredients just right.


As a start into this realm of cooking we chose to do pancakes because pancakes are relatively easy to make. So instead of doing a recipe that would be complicated I think this would give you the confidence to see that this type of cooking is not that hard. And added to that this pancake recipe is also sugar free. We just wanted to make these pancakes as natural as possible.


So, if you know of anyone with these allergies you can surprise them with some GFCF sugar free pancakes. Tell me what you think about it. And look out for some more GFCF Trini recipes in the future. Take it from me, these homemade pancakes are really delicious and makes a satisfying breakfast. Here's GFCF sugar free pancakes.

GFCF SUGAR FREE PANCAKES

1/2 cup raisins, chopped finely
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp mixed essence

1/2 cup of water

Beat the egg.

Mix the cassava flour, rice flour, arrowroot flour (or cornstarch), baking soda, and cinnamon.

Add mixed essence and water to the beaten egg.

Add flour mixture to the egg. Mix well until smooth.

Stir in the chopped raisins.

Place a sauce pan over a low fire.
Pour about a tablespoon oil.

To make medium sized pancakes, pour about a 1/4 cup of the batter into the oil.
Spread out the batter with a spoon. Flip after a minute.

As seen here the top side should be golden.

Drain on a napkin and serve hot.
