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 pb & j, therefore, these pancakes are a must have in my life. I will be making them this weekend! I buy salmon flour and coconut flour from Bob all the time, and have wanted to try the brown rice flour (I only use brown rice at home), so this is the perfect opportunity. Thank you for the recipe and the contest.
Thank you for all of the amazing pancake recipes! Love them!
We love pancakes. We love peanut butter. We love jelly. Yummmm.
I love your pancake project idea 🙂 And these look perfect!!! Conditioned response guaranteed ;). Who would have thought they are made out of gluten free flours. I love using brown rice flour in my baking, good to know that it pairs great with almond meal in pancakes (I’m still worried it may not end up well without the magic that egg does in the dough). I gotta find and try that Cranberry&Vanilla jelly…yum!
Thanks so much, Anna! I’m continually surprised by the versatility of gluten free flours. They definitely take a little getting used to but they’re so much fun and make you feel strong as opposed to sluggish (which is how I feel with wheat flour). The Cranberry Vanilla preserves are TO DIE FOR!! I think it’s a seasonal product but everything I’ve tried from Kelly’s Jelly is delicious. You can buy their stuff online here: http://www.shopkellysjelly.com/ Maybe try emailing Kelly to see if you can get ahold of the Cranberry Vanilla…she’s a reaaally sweet lady!!
Hi Anna & Julia! First off Julia, these pancakes look amazing!! Anna, we can get you some of our Cranberry Vanilla Preserves, email me direct!
Take care, Kelly
Thanks for weighing in, Kelly! You’re so kind. Your cran/vanilla preserves are amazing on everything! I love it spread on grilled cheese sandwiches too for a sweet & savory treat! Thanks again for a wonderful product and for stopping by my site! 🙂
Yum! And again, I say, YUM!
I love PB & J, what scrumptious pancakes!
Well since I’ve had my gallbladder out a week ago, I’ve made it my goal to incorporate grains from Bob’s into every day, sometimes 2-3x a day! It’s sure helped me feel better and healthier. I’m looking forward to trying a few more flours when I get to baking, making pancakes! This recipe is awesome. I’ll make it for my husband as soon as I can round up the ingredients. Thanks for your fun blog posts.
What a chic presentation! Deliciousness soon to follow.
In my fourth grade class, I was literally the ONLY person who didn’t like PB&J. I offered to give away my PB&J sandwich one day, and there were two dozen takers :)I’ve since grown into it
They look delicious!
love me some PB&J pancakes
these look delicious, i love that it combines almond flour and brown rice flour
PB&J for breakfast? Yes please. I am totally obsessed with your pancake project. Best project I’ve eeever heard of!
all of my favorite flavors combined into one beautiful stack of pancakes! This is genius lady!
I am seriously obsessed with the simplicity and tastiness of a PB & J sandwich…it may be a bit unhealthy! 😉 You can only imagine, then, that these pancakes sound absolutely delicious to me. Thanks for sharing :).
I was reading this, and thinking, “gee, I’ve never tried brown rice flour, but want to” and THEN YOU HAVE IT FOR YOUR GIVEAWAY!! So, maybe I’ll be lucky….P.S. These multiplication problems tax my little brain early in the morning. lol
“All peanut butter and jelly sandwiches should be made out of pancakes.” — truth! I’d like to go a step further and say ALL sandwiches should be made out of pancakes… the world would be a better place 🙂
