These gluten free blueberry banana pancakes are sweet and tender. Perfect for a lazy weekend morning!
Pancakes have always been a sort of family tradition for me. Growing up every Saturday morning we made pancakes. Every Saturday. We made pancakes because that was what my grandma was doing, even though she lived across the country. So every Saturday was pancake day, at my grandma’s house and at home with my parents. Without fail!
So I have a great love for pancakes. My mom and dad would often “sneak” a banana into our pancakes for breakfast. When I was a kid I didn’t always like the banana addition, I didn’t like bananas and I still don’t like bananas, but I love banana pancakes and banana bread. Banana in anything else and I’ll pass but I love the subtle sweetness that banana adds to the pancake batter.
If you in the mood for banana bread instead of pancakes, my friend Sharon from What the Fork has the best Gluten Free Banana Bread recipe. It is chock-full of nuts and looks scrumptious!
And of course I love blueberries, and blueberry pancakes are da bomb so it just made sense to put them all together. So here is a gluten-free adaption of my Aunt’s recipe that I followed ever Saturday as a young girl, with mashed banana and fresh blueberries added. A generous drizzle of maple syrup is the finishing touch. With all the ingredients working together, these pancakes are perfect!
If you are looking for a lower-carb pancake recipe I think you’ll love Maya from Wholesome Yum’s Coconut Flour Pancakes. It is hard to believe that they only have 4 net grams of carbs!

These pancakes look amazing Briana. I am going to give this recipe to my kids to make. (I am trying to teach them how to cook.)
Thanks Sandi! Pancakes were exactly where I started learning to cook. I hope they make them for you.
Pancakes were the first bread product I conquered when I went gluten free. They are still my favorite thing to eat for dinner on a Saturday night. Yours look fluffy and delicious! I love adding fruit to sort of balance out the butter and maple syrup 🙂
Thanks Kristen!
Wow, would you come over this weekend and make them for brunch? haha LOVE!
🙂 If you bought me a plane ticket. That would make them very expensive pancakes though!
Love! Blueberry pancakes have always been a special treat for us. Adding banana is a great idea!
Thanks Elise!
These were amazing ! I messed up at first and put 1 3/4 cups milk, so I had to add 1/4 cup of flour and a pinch of baking soda. I also added 1 tsp of vanilla extract and used irish butter . Omg these came out so goooooddddd !!!! 
I am so glad you enjoyed them Hannah!
I feel like pancakes are finicky. I am always adjusting by adding more liquid or flour.
I loooove all of your recipes I have tried!! You are my go to for anything gluten free baking! I am on the hunt for just a basic pancake recipe. If I omit the banana would they still turn out?
Hi Amber,
So happy to hear you have enjoyed my recipes! I’m working on getting a basic pancake recipe up, so keep an eye out for it. For now, you can absolutely omit the banana. I may add a little sugar to help the pancakes carmelize, and you may need to adjust the liquid just a bit so that the batter is the right consistency. Other than that, you should be set.
Happy Baking!
