Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Gluten-Free Healthy Carrot Pancakes.
Step 1
Start by placing your walnuts in a food processor or blender and pulse them until they’re finely crushed.
Step 2
Once done, transfer the crushed walnuts to a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
In that same bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, cream of tartar, and a pinch of salt, blending everything with the walnuts until it’s well combined.
Step 4
Next, puree your fresh carrots in the food processor and move them to a separate bowl.
Step 5
To the pureed carrots, add a splash of orange juice, a bit of water, an egg, and some walnut oil, whisking everything together until it’s nice and smooth.
Step 6
Now, pour this vibrant carrot mixture into your dry ingredients and stir until a rich, thick batter forms.
Step 7
Let the batter rest for about five minutes; this helps it thicken up beautifully.
Step 8
While you wait, heat a small amount of canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, tilting the skillet to ensure the oil coats the surface evenly.
Step 9
After the batter has rested, give it a gentle stir, then grab a 1/4-cup measuring cup to scoop out portions of the batter, dropping them into the skillet.
Step 10
Cook the pancakes for three to five minutes, watching for the edges to look dry, then flip them over and let them cook for another three to five minutes until they’re golden brown on the other side.
Step 11
Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen as these pancakes come to life!.
