Gluten free / dairy free cinnamon and raisin pancakes (#thebreakfastclub)

One of my sons can't eat wheat or dairy and with pancake day fast approaching... still, he used to have an egg allergy too (amongst other things ) so it is getting easier! I am always happy to adapt recipes and happy to try and help those who find that they are cooking for someone with an allergy, feel free to ask. With that in mind, here is a gluten/dairy free recipe and the photo at the bottom will show you how well they went down this morning!

Cinnamon and Raisin Pancakes (Gluten and dairy free recipe)

Ingredients

5oz/125g Gluten free plain flour (I use doves farm)
1 heaped tsp sugar
1 heaped tsp baking powder
50g raisins
1 tsp cinnamon
pinch salt
100ml soya milk
1 egg
A small amount of soya butter to fry in

Method

1 Put all of the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl

2 Measure the milk into a jug, add the egg and beat together

3 Pour the milky mixture into the dry a mix a small amount at a time and mix well, to prevent lumps

4 Heat a frying pan over a medium heat and melt the butter

5 Spoon out the mixture a small amount at a time, you should be able to cook 3 at once

6 Stir the mixture before spooning out more each time as the raisins will sink a little

7 When the pancakes start to get small bubbles they are ready to turn over

8 Cook on the other side for 20-30 seconds

9 Either eat on their own, hot or cold, or serve with toppings of your choice, Mattie had honey and blueberries, but maple syrup, plain yoghurt or a small squeeze of lemon juice and sprinkle of sugar work well too
