For Christmas, I bought a Ninja Foodi XL Smart Grill and have been challenging myself to create new recipes to make in this unit.  This indoor 6 in 1 grill is amazing!  It cooks meat to perfection and as I've branched out to try other recipes in it, I'm finding that it performs well there also.

Why I made pancakes in my Foodi XL Smart Grill.  

For years, we've been using an electric griddle to make pancakes.  But last week, it breathed its last breath and as I was contemplating purchasing a new one, I decided to first experiment with my Foodi XL Smart Grill to see if I can attempt making pancakes in it. After all, I already have this unit, and one less appliance in my kitchen is a winner for me!  After doing an online search, I couldn't find many recipes to make pancakes in this unit, so I experimented and created my own!  After a few tweaks, this new version of pancakes- rather a PAN-CAKE turned out fantastic- and tasty!  And yes, it kinda feels like I'm eating cake for breakfast!

Gluten-Free Fruit Pancakes Recipe 

Makes 4-6 servings

Ingredients (that I used)

• 2 cups of Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Pancake Mix
• 3 eggs
• 1 1/4 cup lactose-free milk (regular milk is fine)
• 2 tbsp melted butter
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 cup of thawed or fresh fruit of your choice
  • I used 1/2 cup Wyman's of Maine Frozen wild blueberries
  • I used 1/2 cup thawed peach slices

Directions: 

1. In a large mixing bowl, mix together GF pancake mix, eggs, melted butter, cinnamon and milk.  The batter will be slightly thick (you want it a bit thicker with less liquid because we are cooking these in the Foodi XL grill).  Gently mix in THAWED fruit (or fresh apple slices) (blueberries are ok to still be frozen because they are small- but what I found is using frozen peach slices, the dough around them didn't cook well in the foodi grill, so thawing them will allow the pancakes to cook thoroughly).
2. Spray the cooking pot with canola non-stick spray.
3. Preheat Ninja Foodi XL Smart Grill to 300 degrees on the BAKE setting
4. Pour in the batter and spread to even consistency throughout the cooking pot.
5. Close lid and set the cooking time to 12-15 minutes*.  *Please note- I checked it after 12 minutes and found the center to be slightly gooey- so I added 3 more minutes onto the baking time.  I found that 15 minutes made a perfectly fluffy, yet moist pan-cake.  
6. Serve with your favorite toppings!

Optional- if you love using Vitality oils in baking, this is a fabulous recipe to add in 3 drops of Orange Vitality oil to give you a fresh, citrus taste to your pan-cake.  I only use Young Living Vitality oils in baking because they are labeled for dietary consumption, and I know they are completely 100% pure.  Orange vitality oil is extracted from cold pressing the rinds of oranges- there's nothing else added to the bottle (no alcohol like orange extract) and nothing artificial.
