Buckwheat Pancakes
These buckwheat pancakes came about for a few reasons: I get lots of requests for anything breakfast, I'm trying to cook with more whole grains, and I heard someone say it's almost impossible to make a great pancake using 100% buckwheat flour.
Ingredients
-
1 cup buckwheat flour
-
1 ½ teaspoons white sugar
-
1 teaspoon baking powder
-
¼ teaspoon baking soda
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
1 ¼ cups buttermilk
-
1 large egg, beaten
-
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, or as needed
Direction
-
Whisk buckwheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl.
-
Beat buttermilk, egg, and vanilla together in a large bowl.
-
Pour flour mixture into buttermilk mixture; whisk until batter is thick and smooth. Let batter rest until bubbles form and batter relaxes, about 5 minutes
-
Melt butter on a griddle over medium heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the hot griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
-
Serve with berries.
