Oh how I love gingerbread! I just had to make it a part of our holiday this year by making these gluten-free gingerbread pancakes.

You could even top them with a dollop of whipped cream and our gingerbread cookies if you wanted to go all out with the seasons favorite flavor. Oh holly jolly, these gluten-free gingerbread pancakes are full of holiday flavors and spices. They are so delicious nobody would ever know they are gluten-free. Serve them with sugared cranberries on top. I feel like there are a few flavors that really capture the taste of Christmas and that includes gingerbread. Some others are peppermint and eggnog.

I do love those flavors, especially in our eggnog cake and pancakes or in our peppermint brownie bites. However, I still prefer gingerbread as my go to holiday flavor.

Doesn’t the smell of molasses and allspice just make you think of Christmas and all the joy this time of year brings? I know it makes me want to cozy up by the fire and listen to holiday music.

    I’m confused because the ingredients for the pancakes, cranberries, and buttermilk syrup are all together. I can make out where the delineation occurs except there are duplicate ingredients and amounts that differ from your instructions. I really want to make your pancakes, but I don’t want to ruin them. The ingredients for the pancakes says 3 T allspice, but then also says 1 tsp allspice. It lists 10 T butter, melted, and 1/2 cup butter. Your instructions for the cranberries say 1 cup sugar, but your instructions say 1/2 cup sugar. Can you clarify for me? Thanks!

      Hi Lisa,

      I apologize for the double ingredients. That was a mistake on my end. Everything has been updated. Please let me know how they turn out…we loved these holiday breakfast pancakes! 🙂
