The texture of the dough on rice or corn flour is not similar to gluten. I saw in recipes about using guar gum as a thickener. And it is completely harmless and non-allergic. I decided to order.

Husband and children said that the more experience in baking at PP (proper nutrition), the better the quality. Because desserts really want to eat, and the store is absolutely impossible.

If the pancake is baked from very thin dough, then the gum gives it a “crispness”, forming a thin film, such a pancake dries very quickly, removed from the pan, and becomes a delicious crispy “chip”)
