David eyres pancake made gluten-free

Pancakes
recipe

It wasn't until Amanda Hesser resurrected David Eyre's Pancake here at food52, that I actually noticed it and realized how much I missed it. The pancake has few ingredients and is incredibly simply to make. I converted it to gluten-free by using my all purpose brown rice flour mix. It didn't need the xanthan gum. The original recipe warns against over-mixing, but you don't have to worry about that with gluten-free flour. I also added a quarter teaspoon pure vanilla extract to mask the lack of wheat and reduced the butter to three tablespoons from four (because after it making it several times, I found that I could get away with less). <br /> <br />The recipe calls for a squeeze of fresh lemon over the top of the pancake once you take it out of the oven. But sous chef boy (my 17 year old son, Bradford) didn’t like the lemon. I did. So you choose. <br /> <br />Oh yes, and one more thing. The original recipe says it serves 2 to 4. I think they were joking and that it should really read: Serves 2 normal people, 4 very small people who don’t like to eat, or 1 sous chef boy. <br />
