Super Fluffy Gluten-Free Japanese Souffle Pancakes image

Wiggly, jiggly, light, and fluffy pancake fun! More of a souffle than a pancake, these gluten-free souffle pancakes are just as scrumptious and more nutritious than those made with classic refined white flour. Season these heavenly treats with cinnamon, nutmeg, or even grated citrus zest. Variations for a classic batter and a grain-free, low-carb batter are shown below.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

¼ cup gluten-free all-purpose baking flour (such as Bob's Red Mill®)
¼ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 large egg yolks
1 pinch salt
4 large egg whites
¼ cup white sugar
1 pinch cream of tartar
1 ½ teaspoons vegetable oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine flour, buttermilk, vanilla, baking powder, egg yolks, and salt for batter in a bowl.
  • Whip egg whites for meringue in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl on medium-high speed until foamy. With the mixer running, gradually add sugar and cream of tartar. Continue to whip until soft to medium peaks form. When the beater is pulled from the whites, the peaks will curve back down a little instead of sticking straight up. The whipped whites will turn opaque and significantly increase in volume.
  • Mix 1/3 of the whipped whites into the pancake batter. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to fold in remaining whites, in several additions, being sure there are no large clumps of egg whites in the batter.
  • Grease the inside of round metal molds and place molds into a lightly greased pan over medium-low heat. Fill molds 2/3 high with batter. Cover the pan and cook until bottoms are golden brown and bubbles break the surface, about 10 minutes. Flip, cover, and cook until golden brown on the other side and tops spring back when touched, about 5 more minutes.
