    Gluten-Free Blueberry Pancake Bread that will Inspire Little Chefs

    By Jereann Zann on April 4, 2019 Bread, Breakfast, Dairy-Free Recipes, Kids Can Cook

    The Celiac Mama, Jereann Zann, is guest posting for our Kids Can Cook section today! She creates wonderful, family-friendly eats, like this dairy-free, gluten-free blueberry pancake bread recipe. And she is introducing the new Little GF Chefs Baking Club (which is dairy-free too!).

    The saying goes that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It gives you energy and the ability to concentrate better at work and school, but busy mornings can make eating a healthy breakfast challenging.

    As a working mom raising a six and four year old and a professional lunch box packer for two gluten free, dairy free kids, I am always looking for ways to beat the morning rush. From muffins to eggs to oatmeal, I’ve found that making larger batches that will last a few days is always helpful. One of our favorite breakfasts to make ahead of time is Blueberry Pancake Bread.

    Gluten-Free Blueberry Pancake Bread that will Inspire Little Chefs

    My kids love blueberry pancakes (who doesn’t!) and we often eat them on the weekends. One Saturday morning, we had some leftover batter and my daughter and I were curious to see what would happen if we baked the pancakes in a mini loaf pan.

    I knew that if they were a hit, they could become an on-the-go snack, and I could just imagine the maple syrup in the car seats. So, before we baked the pancakes, we added maple syrup to the batter and a cinnamon brown sugar topping.

    My kids were so eager to try the Blueberry Pancake Bread when it came out of the oven, and I knew we had a winner when there were only crumbs left and smiling faces a few minutes later. Now we make it together all the time!

    The Little GF Chefs Baking Club is Born

    Little GF Chefs Baking Club - Top Allergen Free, Fun For AllSpeaking of baking together, I try to get my kids in the kitchen as much as possible. Being on restricted diets can be hard for little ones, and I’ve found that baking together increases their self-confidence and helps them develop a positive relationship with food. Plus, it’s TONS of fun! So much so, that recently my daughter and I started a monthly baking club for kids called Little GF Chefs to bring the joys of baking to families all over the country.

    Free From Top Allergens, Fun For All

    Every month club members receive baking kits complete with dry mixes, decorating supplies and baking tools that are gluten free and free of the top 8 allergens. If you’re looking for a fun way to get your kids in the kitchen, check out Little GF Chefs.

      Hi there! This recipe looks delicious… I was wondering if there was anything to that would work as a substitute for the canned coconut milk? Thanks!

        You could use your favorite dairy-free milk beverage in place of the water and coconut milk, but you would then want to increase the fat in the recipe – such as the oil. Otherwise it will turn out gummy. I couldn’t tell you the exact amount, since we haven’t tested it.

      This recipe did not work for me at all. Not sure what I could have done wrong, as I followed instructions with the exception of a little bit of applesauce instead of the teaspoon of coconut oil. It was not a batter at all; very soupy. I even tried adding more flour to no avail. Too bad you don’t have a video…

        Hi Linda, I’m sure Jereann will respond, but I looked at her ratios on this recipe and they look about right for quick bread. It definitely shouldn’t be anywhere near soupy. What gluten-free flour blend did you use? So you used 1 teaspoon applesauce in place of the oil, or more? And you used full-fat canned coconut milk, not a milk beverage (in the large cartons), correct?

        Hi, Linda. Sorry to hear that the recipe didn’t turn out well for you. It definitely shouldn’t be soupy. What kind of coconut milk did you use? The kind that comes in the carton or the full fat variety that comes in a can? Also, how much apple sauce did you use to replace the coconut oil? What type of gluten free flour did you use? Thanks.

      Can this be baked off in one 8×4″ loaf pan? Or 6 jumbo cupcake cups? If so on either or both of these, how long are the bake times?

      Reply
      • Jereann Zann on April 4, 2019 2:36 pm

        You can definitely make them as jumbo or regular size muffins too. In that case, the cooking time will vary from 20-25 minutes depending on the size, so start checking after 20 minutes. I haven’t tried them as one 8×4 loaf, but it would probably work and cooking time would be closer to 50 minutes.
