For those of you who are aware of my puppy love for peanut butter, this Peanut Butter and Jelly Pancake post probably doesn’t come as a shocker. Peanut butter and jelly mixed right in to your pancake batter. Haazaaaaaaah! Topped with…more peanut butter and jelly! All peanut butter and jelly sandwiches should be made out of pancakes.
Peanut butter and I have a grade school relationship. We hold hands on the swing set when no one’s looking but in public view, we avoid eye contact. I pretend I don’t care and play it cool while PB gives me the run-around –putting on a chase one day and the next day finding some other pig-tailed red head to be the object of its affection. That’s so typical PB. It’s coy. And devastating. Whyyyy, peanut butter, whyyyyyyy?
Enough of that.
This, my friends, is Week 8 of the Pancake Project. I have to confess, I was going to make this week my last week of the project. I even wrote an entire pancake farewell post and then tucked it away for later because I simply have more pancakes to give. To you. Let’s not sugar coat this, I’ve got more pancakes to eat, mmmkay? Mmkay. Each week brings new flavors and fun but this week’s recipe is by far my favorite. On account of the peanut butter. And the jelly.
Pancake.
Ding!

Pancakes and I seem to renew our vows every week. The haps with this batter dog, other than peanut butter and jelly being all mixed up in its grill, is half almond meal and half brown rice flour. WINNER! The texture, consistency, the love…the touch the feel of pancakes, the fabric of our lives. No really, almond meal and brown rice flour mixed together is a splendid gluten free merriment.

It takes two to make a thing go riiiiiight!
Let’s play the ol’ stack and cram. Okaaaay, twist my arm.
Peanut Butter & Jelly Pancakes
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted unsweetened creamy peanut butter I used chunky
- ½ cup Bob’s Red Mill almond meal/flour
- ½ cup Bob’s Red Mill Brown Rice Flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoons to 2 your favorite jelly + more for serving
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, add the milk and peanut butter. Heat over medium and stir just until the peanut butter is somewhat combined and is no longer a big hunk. This should take but a few seconds. Allow this mixture to cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg and the milk/peanut butter mixture.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the almond meal, brown rice flour and baking powder.
- Pour the flour mixture into the wet mixture and stir until combined.
- Add the jelly and mix into the batter.
- In a large skillet, add just enough oil to coat the bottom and heat to medium.
- Once the skillet is all the way hot, measure a scant ¼ cup of batter and pour it carefully into the pan.
- The batter will spread and sizzle around the edges. This is normal. Allow pancake to cook until little air bubbles rise to the top and the sides firm up.
- Flip to the other side and continue cooking another minute or so, until pancake is cooked all the way through.
- Repeat with remaining batter (I make 2 pancakes at a time on a 12” skillet)
I love these pancakes! And peanut butter. And jam. And gluten-free cooking. And Bob’s Red Mill. And you! :)Alex
Aww, you’re sweet Alex! This is one of my favorite stack of pancakes ever. I love that there’s peanut butter mixed in the pancake batter – it gives the hotcakes such great peanutty flavor. Let me know if you try them! 🙂
brown rices flour? interesting
love pancakes
That stack of pancakes with jelly in between looks almost like a little dessert, so cute!
YUM!!!!
Yes! I agree with everything said here. 🙂 The jam between each layer looks like heaven! I love white rice flour but I know it’s not as healthy… This makes me more excited to try the brown!
I love me some PB and J! And I love that the pancakes are gluten-free! Not a requirement for my diet, but I am trying to consume less gluten as I think it messes with my tummy a bit.
Awesome idea! I have to say, I’m not the hugest fan of peanut butter & jelly sandwiches, but these look like a MUCH better version of the sandwich. Yum!
I’ve never used brown rice flour in pancakes or waffles before….GENIUS! Hope i win!

I’ve become obsessed with your pancakes! And with Bob’s Red Mill! I LOVE to win the flour.
I love the idea of peanut butter and jelly pancakes! Great idea!
I’ve tried almond butter, cashew butter, sunflower butter but I always go back to peanut butter. Nothing comes close to the taste of peanut butter. If you have a peanut allergy you don’t have any othhim.er choice but to eat something else. But for me peanut butter on everything. I was making peanut butter pancakes 25 yrs ago. I have never tried them with jelly. Of course back then I used wheat flour. Now that I know I have celiac disease I only use gluten free flours. I use rice flour for alot of things, pancakes being # 1. We have pancakes every saturday morning. Bobs red mill is my favorite. Good products and Bob seems to be a great person from what I have read about him.
I’ve never used brown rice flour but have used Bob’s Almond Meal. Your stack looks great. I just canned some strawberry preserves yesterday that would go great with those cakes. We have a berry patch in the yard but I bought them at the store, it’s winter here! Thanks for the opportunity to score some Bob’s Red Mill, great company, awesome products!
Omg…your pancake project is killing me. I might have to try all of them!
I love Bob’s Red Mill anything…awesome giveaway.
p.s. Thanks for the sweet blog comment 🙂
