Ingredients:
| Name | Metric | US | TIP | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hulled Buckwheat Groats, soaked overnight | 160 gr | 1 cup | Buckwheat Groats are the hulled seeds of the buckwheat plant and have a mild texture and grassy flavor, making buckwheat ideal for savory and sweet crepe or pancake recipes. Because buckwheat is gluten-free, it is a great alternative to wheat flour. | |
| Rolled Oats | 100 gr | 1 cup | Rolled oats, also known as old-fashioned oats, are oats that have been steamed and then flattened with large rollers. They retain more texture compared to instant oats but are quicker to cook than steel-cut oats. Rolled oats contribute to recipes by providing texture (chewy) and nutrition (fiber, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants). | |
| Milk | 330 ml | 1 1/2 cups | You can use dairy or non-dairy milk, or just water | |
| Egg | 1 | 1 | ||
| Baking Powder | 6 gr | 1 teaspoon | You can add in addition to baking powder 1/2 tsp of baking soda in this recipe, this will ensure the pancakes rise properly. | |
| Salt | 3 gr | 1/2 teaspoon |
Optional Ingredients :
| 6 gr / 1 tsp Cinnamon | |
| 3 gr / 1/2 tsp Vanilla |
Equipment:
| Blender |
Steps:
- Rinse and soak buckwheat (1 cup) overnight.
- Using a colander, drain and rinse the buckwheat groats until the water runs clear. Discard any excess water.
- Add drained buckwheat groats to the blender with rolled oats (1 cup), egg (1), milk (1 ½ cups), baking powder (1 tsp), salt (1/2 tsp ), cinnamon (1 tsp ) and vanilla ( ¼ tsp ). Blend on high until well combined.
- Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes. This allows the oats and buckwheat to absorb some of the moisture and helps the pancakes become fluffier.
- Heat a pan over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or oil to coat the surface. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges begin to set. Then flip and cook until golden brown on both sides.
- Continue until all of the batter has been used. You can expect to make about 10 pancakes medium-sized , each using approximately ¼ cup of batter.
- Serve immediately with berries, a dollop of yogurt and maple syrup, or toppings of your choice. These buckwheat pancakes can also be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer in an airtight container or bag for up to 3 months.
