While we love that gluten-free foods are becoming more widely available in supermarkets, nothing beats breakfast from-scratch—and with flavor combinations like coconut-strawberry and pumpkin-almond, we’re not complaining about the extra time in the kitchen.

In fact, these gluten-conscious twists on breakfast favorites may be even tastier than the originals. In this first recipe, the beloved buttermilk pancake gets a nutritious makeover with the addition of nutty flaxseed meal. Tapioca flour and potato starch keep the cakes light and fluffy, while brown rice flour adds whole grains and fiber.
