Before preparing the pancake batter I diced up an onion, half a green pepper and 8 slices of black forest ham. Then I measured out some bacon bits.
For the pancake batter I poured some almond milk, 2 large eggs, some vegetable oil and some Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pancake Mix into a medium sized mixing bowl.
After stirring the ingredients together I scraped the prepared meat and vegetables into the mixing bowl.
I stirred them into the batter, just until blended.
Next I dumped in some grated medium cheddar cheese.
I folded the cheddar cheese into the pancake batter.
The next step was to cook the pancakes. I poured about 1/3 cup of batter, for each pancake, onto the preheated pan.
Once the batter was bubbling, I flipped the pancakes. It took about 3 minutes per side.
Stack up the pancakes and serve immediatley or keep them warm in the oven.
Gluten Free Western Pancakes are a hearty variation to regular pancakes.
They are a fully loaded pancake that provide a delicate mix of savoury and sweet with the addition of pure maple syrup!

How do I store gluten free western pancakes?
To store gluten-free western pancakes, follow these steps:
- Allow them to cool: Before storing your pancakes, make sure they have cooled down to room temperature. Storing them while they are still warm can create condensation inside the container, leading to sogginess.
- Arrange in a single layer: If possible, lay out your pancakes in a single layer on a baking sheet or a large plate. This prevents them from sticking together.
- Use airtight containers: Once your pancakes have cooled and are arranged in a single layer, transfer them to an airtight container. Alternatively, you can also use a zip-lock freezer bag. Press out as much air as possible before sealing the container or bag.
- Separate layers with parchment paper: If you need to stack your pancakes, place a sheet of parchment paper between each layer to prevent them from sticking together.
- Label and date: To keep track of freshness, label the container or bag with the date you made the pancakes. This will help you ensure they are consumed within a reasonable time frame.
- Refrigerate: Depending on how soon you plan to consume them, you can store your gluten-free pancakes in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- Reheat properly: When you’re ready to eat the pancakes, reheat them gently in a toaster, toaster oven, or microwave until warmed through. This helps maintain their texture and flavor.
By following these steps, you can store your gluten-free western pancakes effectively and enjoy them whenever you crave them.
Can I freeze gluten free western pancakes?
Yes, you can freeze gluten-free pancakes just like you would regular pancakes. Here’s a basic guide on how to freeze them:
- Cook the pancakes according to your recipe until they’re fully cooked.
- Allow the pancakes to cool completely to room temperature. This prevents condensation from forming inside the packaging.
- Once cooled, place a sheet of parchment paper between each pancake to prevent them from sticking together.
- Stack the pancakes neatly in a freezer-safe container or a large freezer bag. Make sure to remove as much air as possible from the bag before sealing it.
- Label the container or bag with the date of freezing.
- Place the container or bag in the freezer.
When properly frozen, gluten-free pancakes can typically last in the freezer for about 1 to 2 months. To reheat, simply take out the desired number of pancakes from the freezer, and either microwave them for a quick warm-up or toast them in a toaster or toaster oven until heated through. Enjoy your gluten-free pancakes!
