2 tbsp caster sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

If your pan is large enough you can do 2-3 at a time, just don't overcrowd the pan too. Once the edges are set and bubbles appear on the surface (around 2-3 mins) flip and cook for a further 2 mins. The pancakes should be a deep golden brown on both sides. Transfer to a warm oven on low and repeat the process until the batter is all used.

DOUBLE-BUCKWHEAT BLUEBERRY PANCAKES



Double-Buckwheat Blueberry Pancakes image

I call these double-buckwheat pancakes because I use both buckwheat flour and cooked buckwheat (kasha) in the batter. Cooked whole grains always contribute moisture and great texture to pancakes, and kasha has such a wonderful nutty flavor as well. I use half buckwheat flour and half whole wheat flour in the batter; if you don't eat gluten you could substitute a gluten-free all-purpose flour for the whole wheat flour. The buckwheat is already gluten-free but an all-buckwheat flour batter would be difficult to work with, a bit too heavy and sticky. This batter is already dense and a bit sticky (that's the buckwheat flour), but the pancakes are not heavy.

Time 1h

Yield serving 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup / 100 grams buckwheat flour
3/4 cup / 100 grams whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
Scant 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 large or extra large eggs
1 1/2 cups / 355 ml buttermilk
1 tablespoon honey (can be a strong honey like buckwheat honey) or agave nectar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons grapeseed oil or melted butter
3/4 cup /113 grams cooked kasha
6 ounces / 1 1/3 cups (1 box) fresh or frozen blueberries
1/2 teaspoon all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In another bowl, whisk eggs, then add buttermilk and honey or agave nectar, and whisk together. Whisk in vanilla extract and oil or melted butter.
  • Add flour mixture to wet ingredients and quickly whisk together. Do not over-beat. A few lumps are okay. Stir in cooked kasha.
  • In a separate bowl toss blueberries with 1/2 teaspoon flour.
  • If necessary, brush hot griddle with butter. Drop by small ladlefuls (3 to 4 tablespoons) onto the hot griddle. Place 6 or 7 blueberries on each pancake. Cook until bubbles begin to break through, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and cook for 30 seconds to a minute on the other side, or until nicely browned.

Tips:

  • Use fresh buckwheat flour: Fresh buckwheat flour will give your pancakes a better flavor and texture than old flour.
  • Grind your own buckwheat flour: If you can, grind your own buckwheat flour. This will give you the freshest flour possible and ensure that it has a fine texture.
  • Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for at least 30 minutes will help the buckwheat flour absorb the liquid and produce a more tender pancake.
  • Use a hot griddle: A hot griddle is essential for cooking buckwheat pancakes. If the griddle is not hot enough, the pancakes will stick and won't cook evenly.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat: Medium heat will help the pancakes cook evenly without burning.
  • Flip the pancakes only once: Buckwheat pancakes are delicate, so it's important to flip them only once. If you flip them too often, they will break apart.

Conclusion:

Buckwheat pancakes are a delicious and healthy breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their nutty flavor and fluffy texture, buckwheat pancakes are a great way to start your day.
