Ingredients
- 1 cup buckwheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Directions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: buckwheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: eggs, milk, honey, butter, and vanilla extract.
- Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking to combine.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grease the skillet with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet, spreading evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden and bubbles begin to form on the surface.
- Carefully flip the pancake and cook for 1-2 minutes more, until the pancake is cooked through.
- Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve pancakes warm, with maple syrup and fresh fruit.
