Mighty Fine Flour Updated

I have found the commercially available GF flours are getting better. I actually had one I prefered to my MFF mix recently (it had better texture) . So I decided it was time to try to improve.  This morning I made a batch with just a small tweak. I added a little more white rice flour.  It did improve the texture.
  • 3 cups brown rice flour
  • 1 cup white rice flour
  • 1/4 cup soy flour
  • 1 1/3 cup nonfat milk powder, I prefer the non instant variety.
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum

Add all the ingredients to a large mixing bowl, about 4 quarts, Mix thoroughly.

I usually double this recipe because that is what fits in my flour canister. I have also made it smaller batches but then it is harder to get the proportion's right.

Coconut Pancakes

My daughter who does not need to eat GF believes that these are the best pancakes ever...
I think my wife and I prefer buckwheat pancakes.  They are both very good.
2 Cups Mighty Fine Flour
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
1 Tablespoon Flax Seed (optional)
1/4 Cup Unsweetened coconut flakes

2 Cups Water
1/2 Cup Oil ( I typically use canola oil)
4 Eggs


Mix dry ingredients, add oil, eggs, and water.  Cook on medium - medium high heat, Turn when bubbles begin break on the top.   If you like a thick pancake reduce the water.
