Easier, buy a gluten-free mix like "Pamela's Baking and Pancake Mix". My sister has celiac disease (can't have gluten) and I have had good luck using Pamela's. I am sure there are other gluten free mixes out there and a mix is easier than experimenting and creating your own at home.

Everything else that I have encountered uses some type of flour, whether a wheat flour or not.
