SpicenEasy's Fluffy Buckwheat Pancakes

• Prep Time: 10 minutes

• Cook Time: 15 minutes

• Serves: 2-3 (makes 8-10 pancakes)

Ingredients:

• 1 cup SpicenEasy Buckwheat Flour

• 1 tbsp coconut sugar or maple syrup

• 1 tsp baking powder

• ½ tsp baking soda

• ¼ tsp salt

• 1 large egg

• 1 cup buttermilk* (or 1 cup milk + 1 tbsp lemon juice)

• 2 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil, plus extra for cooking

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

*Buttermilk substitute: Mix 1 cup milk with 1 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar, let stand 5 minutes

Instructions:

1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together buckwheat flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the egg, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.

3. Make Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix – a few lumps are fine.

4. Rest Batter: Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the buckwheat flour to hydrate and results in fluffier pancakes.

5. Cook: Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Add a little butter or oil. Pour ¼ cup portions of batter onto the hot pan. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set (about 2-3 minutes).

6. Flip and Cook: Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

7. Serve: Serve immediately with your favourite toppings like fresh berries, maple syrup, yogurt, or banana.

Chef's Tip: The batter will be thicker than regular pancake batter – this is normal and gives them their wonderful fluffy texture. For extra-light pancakes, separate the egg and beat the white until soft peaks form, then fold it in at the end. These pancakes freeze beautifully between layers of baking paper for quick weekday breakfasts!
