Pancakes, Waffles, and Syrup

You can get a mix if you'd like from the store. I really like using my bisquick mix substitute that is found here to make them. I have to admit I'm a waffle girl and don't really like pancakes that much so I haven't made them. I got these recipes off the Bisquick site. I love the waffles and my whole family eats them right up. Non-stick surfaces can absorb gluten, so I keep mine strictly gluten-free. I'd like a second waffle iron so I wouldn't have to share my gluten-free ones. It's not that I don't want to share so much as that the mix takes work to put together and is much more expensive.

Biscuit Mix Pancakes

2 cup biscuit mix
1 cup milk
2 eggs
2 teaspoon xanthan gum

Mix ingredients together and cook however you like to make pancakes. I usually place about 1/4 cup of batter on a frying pan and flip them once the bubbles start to pop open on the top surface.

Biscuit Mix Waffles

2 cup biscuit mix
1 1/3 cup milk
1 egg
2 Tbsp oil
2 tsp xantham gum

Mix ingredients together and bake according to your waffle iron's instructions.


I have a confession to make. I don't ever add maple flavoring to my syrup. I just use brown sugar. That's how I like it, so my recipe says optional on the maple flavoring.

Syrup

1 cup water
2 1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp maple flavor (optional)

1. Place water and brown sugar in a small saucepan. Heat over low, mixing occasionally, until sugar is dissolved.
2. Add in maple flavor if using.
