- **Mix Dry Ingredients:** In a large bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour blend, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and xanthan gum (if using). 
- **Combine Wet Ingredients:** In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, almond milk, and maple syrup until smooth. 
- **Make Batter:** Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes. 
- **Heat Skillet:** Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with vegetable oil. 
- **Cook Pancakes:** Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set (about 2-3 minutes). Flip and cook the other side until golden brown (1-2 minutes). 
- **Serve:** Serve warm with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, maple syrup, or dairy-free spreads.
