Breakfast is challenging when you’re gluten free, especially when people bring food to the office for sharing.
Bagels and doughnuts and muffins, oh my. Tara’s job was having a pot luck breakfast and all I could think about was if there would be anything she could eat. I wanted something that would provide some protein, not be thought of as “gluten free”, and fun to eat. I came up with these Gluten Free Pancake Slider Bites.
What Gluten Free Pancake Slider Bites Offer
- The sausage adds that little bit of protein I was looking for. It keeps mid-morning snacking away for a few more minutes.
- They’re little sandwiches which is the last thing I think of when I hear “gluten free”.
- They’re bite size pancakes with a piece of sausage in the middle that are dipped in warm maple syrup. Sounds like a fun office breakfast option to me.
Tips when making Gluten Free Pancake Slider Bites
- Use a teaspoon size measuring spoon sprayed with cooking spray for putting your pancake batter into the muffin cups.
- After flattening the sausage into the muffin tin, put a small indention in the middle of each patty. Like burgers, this will allow them to bake more evenly and not puff up as much in the middle.
- I used a 24-cup mini muffin pan but you can also find mini muffin pans in a 48-cup size pan like the one online HERE.
- A great addition to the Gluten Free Pancake Slider Bites is this Beef Hash.
- Gluten Free Bisquick Pancake and Waffle Mix is available HERE.
The Conclusion
I got something that provides some protein, is not be thought of as “gluten free”, and is fun to eat.
Enjoy!
