Cornbread pancakes made gluten-free with corn flour and brown rice flour. These fluffy, delicious pancakes are comforting, flavorful, and a unique take on gluten-free pancakes!
His take on Cornbread Pancakes: “Rustic. Rustic pancake. Like a cabin. They’re like eating cornbread next to the fire in a cabin. And bacon. They’re real good with bacon.”
Her take: “I’d like a bowl of chili to go with my pancake.”
Greetings and welcome to Week 5 of The Pancake Project! For those of you just joining in, Bob’s Red Mill and I have teamed up to bring you a new pancake recipe every Friday.
My goal is to create fun and tasty pancake recipes using alternatives to wheat and give you something to sink your teeth into during the weekend.
After eating a plate of cornbread flapjacks with butter and honey drizzled on top, I can’t help but question why every single flapjack is not made out of corn flour. Hi, commodity pancake, what a hot commodity you are! Bob’s Red Mill Corn Flour is a finer grind than corn meal, which gives the pancake the same tasty cornbread flavor but they turn out softer and fluffier than cornbread.
Corn flour is the bee’s knees is what it is. It’s too soon to talk favorites but I would be hard-pressed to believe the Cornbread Flapjack wouldn’t make the top 3. They’re easy to flip, easy to eat and would make a divine ham and cheese sandwich if you want me to give it to you straight.

Gluten free pancakes these look yummy cant wait to make them. Thanks for the receipe.
mmm, love cornbread. i had some banana split pancakes this morning ^_^ (healthy, too!)
Cornbread pancakes sound SO good. They sound like they would be good for savory dishes too.
Good idea. I’ve never had cornbread pancakes.
I had the best corn pancakes of my life served out of a food cart at Camden Lock Market in London a year ago, and I’ve been searching for a similar recipe ever since. I am hoping this is it.
What a fun twist on pancakes! I could see how a bowl of chili could go nicely along side a tall stack of these beauties.
I’d love to try these!!
I am desperate to find a pancake recipe that is GF and that my kids will like ! This one, I will definitely try this week. Does anyone know if Bob’s corn meal is non GMO?
So excited to see a gluten free recipe.
I want to eat a cabin in pancakes. I mean, pancakes in a cabin. What? Who drinks and leaves comments on people’s blogs? Wow that’s awful. Sorry.
When are you announcing winners?! I’m dreaming about all the flours you’re giving away 🙂
Hey pretty! I’m pretty sure you should leave comments on my site every time you drink, lol! Or every time you leave a comment, you should drink…either way works 😉
Each Wednesday, a winner is chosen randomly (using random number generator) from the previous Friday’s giveaway and I send the winner an email. Reckon I should announce their name each Wednesday? Kinda still new to the ol giveaway thing. 🙂 Have a FABULOUS weekend!
I just started purchasing Bobs Red Mill and I love it !
Always looking for different/new GF pancakes recipes – can’t wait to try these!
Hmm, those pancakes look and sound delicious. Do they taste a bit like cornbread and a bit like pancakes, combined? How perfect.
So, I live in the northeast and am now “snowed in”. I want these for breakfast tomorrow, but only have cornmeal in the house. Can I use 100% cornmeal instead of the brown rice flour? Otherwise, I will just have to wait until I can get to the store. 🙂
I found your blog through Foodgawker and the pancake project. I made the buckwheat pancakes and they were delicious! Can’t wait to try these!
Yum! Looks delicious!
