1-2-3 Gluten-Free, Buckwheat Pancakes

I’ve been meaning to try 1-2-3 Gluten-Free for a few years now. According to the website, 1-2-3 Gluten-Free is: "...manufactured in a dedicated gluten-free (and peanut-free, nut-free and allergen-free) kosher facility utilizing only gluten-free ingredients. Your health is our number one priority. All of our products are gluten free, wheat free, nut free and peanut free. All of our products are also free of egg, dairy (including casein), all but two are free of corn and all but one are free of soy and their labels clearly indicate this." I met 1-2-3 Gluten-Free owners at two separate food shows and they kindly sent me some samples to try. Yippee and thanks!

A few weekends ago, I gathered some friends together (only two of us eat gluten-free) to try out a few pancake mixes. 1-2-3 Gluten-Free’s buckwheat pancake mix was the clear winner.

My friend Danielle, who is GF, about to dig in.

Light texture and not overly buckwheat-y, the pancakes cooked up nicely (as in actually bubbled, some GF mixes don't), weren’t too dense or bouncy (as some of the other GF pancake mixes can be) and were enjoyed by GF'ers and non-GF'ers. We made some chocolate chip versions and I caramelized some bananas just to gild this GF lily. Here’s what it looked like, so yum.

The success of this 1-2-3 Gluten-Free mix makes me eager to try others in their line. Thank you for the samples, looking forward to the next taste testing.
