How do you add a little joy to your day?
My kids like to start off theirs with a little Nutella on their waffles or toast. It’s a very European thing to do! A nice spread of the hazelnut goodness on a slice of Parisian toast… yum. One jar of Nutella is sold every 2.5 seconds throughout the world – isn’t that an amazing statistic?
What better way to add a little joy to your breakfast than with pancakes with Nutella! Since I’m gluten free, this gluten free pancake recipe is delicious – you won’t even notice that they are gluten free. Swap out the gluten free flour with regular flour if desired.
To kick off Nutella’s Truck Tour starting June 27, 2015, I’m sharing my gluten free pancakes with Nutella recipe, and a chance to win a personalized Nutella jar, along with details of the summer tour (see below).
Gluten Free Pancakes with Nutella
1 1/3 cup gluten free flour – you can substitute with regular flour
1 tablespoon coconut palm sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter, melted
½ teaspoon vanilla
Pinch salt
Nutella to top
Method:
In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, salt and baking powder.
Make a hole in the centre, a ‘well’, and add the egg, melted butter, and vanilla. Stir together.
Pour in the milk and mix until batter is smooth.
In a griddle or frying pan, melt butter on medium to high heat. With a large spoon, pour batter into rounds. Flip when pancake is bubbling.
Remove from heat and transfer onto plate. Spread Nutella on top, and garnish with cut strawberries. Add bananas, or other fruit on top as well.
