Gluten Free Buckwheat Flax Pancake and Baking Mix


I just finished having pancakes made fro this mix. It was a free sample given at a gluten-free food fair. If you are the kind of person who misses hearty, whole-grain style pancakes because of having to eat gluten free, these are for you. The flavor was hearty, but not overwhelming and the texture was surprisingly light.

Nutritionally, they are quite on the plus side. No nutritionally deficient white rice or other filler flours. All the ingredients are organic if that makes a difference to you. And they are Weight Watcher friendly. Only two points per two pancakes, and six grams of fiber. This mix is definitely going to be a staple in my cupboard!

If you are new to gluten free products, buckwheat flour is not related to wheat but to rhubarb and is a safe flour unless it is mixed with wheat flour as so many buckwheat pancake mixes are. This mix is definitely safe for the GF diet.

If you are concerned about whether it can be prepared casein free, the directions state you can use almond, rice or soy milk.Get more detail about Gluten Free Buckwheat Flax Pancake and Baking Mix.
