I’ve seen both of these used in gluten-free pancake recipes, so it’s possible to not have to use flours like tapioca and rice flour when making them.

Can you add coconut flour to your list? Bruce Fife, ND, published an excellent book, “Cooking with Coconut Flour”. The first 42 pages discuss the benefits of low carb, gluten free and Celiac Disease (page 9). Tropical nuts and oils are shunned due to misinformation, but are very healthy and beneficial. Coconut flour contain 61% fiber (the highest of all flours), water, protein, fat and carbohydrates are the other 39%.
Since coconut flour is so high in fiber it absorbs liquids very quickly, so it is very different from other flours, but produces an excellent product. My favorite recipe (one that I’ve adapted from Bruce’s book), is Banana Pecan Pancakes; so moist they need little or no maple syrup or honey.
