Allergy Friendly Pancakes - Gluten, Dairy & Egg Free!

It is safe to say that pancakes are by far my favourite breakfast food. Growing up, we would hit Mum up for pancakes at all special occasions - birthdays, christmas, school holidays, weekends, hump day, Fridays... This basically meant that I had to nail a gluten, dairy and egg-free recipe ASAP.  Here is an oldie, but a goodie, the world's easiest allergy-friendly pancake recipe.

RECIPE NOTES

I like my pancakes thin and crispy so for a fluffier recipe, add in 1/3 cup extra Gluten Free plain flour.
