Description
I decided to make buckwheat pancakes 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 salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 ¼ cups buttermilk
- 1 large egg, beaten
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, or as needed
Instructions
- 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.
