YUM: Pamela’s GF Baking & Pancake Mix
For 1.5 years my middle daughter was on a strict Gluten & Dairy FREE diet. But the kids wanted pancakes all of the time! So like any over-protective Mama bear, I went hunting for the best GF pancake mix I could find… and now, even though she is cleared to eat wheat & gluten again, we still use Pamela’s. Why? Here’s my full review.
Health | |
Like | Dislike |
Uses brown rice & other flours vs. White rice or potato starch | Not 100% dairy-free |
Contains extra protein from almond flour | |
Uses aluminum-free baking powder & sea salt | |
Taste | |
Like | Dislike |
If you want an egg-free option, this fluffs up nicely using flax eggs | Have to add ingredients to heighten the flavor |
Sweet without added sugar | |
Even with almond meal it’s not gritty | |
Competition | |
This is my favorite brand, but I’ve also tested Arrow Mills, King Arthur & Bob’s. There is a brand that you can buy at Costco called Namaste GF Baking Mix that I also LOVE (not a pancake mix) – it doesn’t contain nuts, dairy, or other allergens… which is great for school baking and clients who have allergies. My review on that coming soon! |
