Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten
  • free all
  • purpose flour 1 ½ cups whole milk 4 large eggs ¼ cup granulated sugar 2 tsp vanilla extract 2 tsp baking powder ¼ tsp salt ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled For the Fresh Berry Compote: 3 cups mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) ½ cup granulated sugar 2 tbsp lemon juice 1 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat a non stick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/3 cup of batter for each pancake onto the heated surface. Cook until bubbles form on top and edges are set, about 2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining batter. For the Fresh Berry Compote: In a saucepan, combine all compote ingredients over medium heat. Cook until berries release their juices and start to soften, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly. Assemble pancakes into a tower, alternating layers of compote between each pancake. Drizzle with remaining compote and serve immediately.
