DOUBLE-BUCKWHEAT BLUEBERRY PANCAKES
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.

Steps:
- Preheat a griddle.
- Sift together flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- 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. Remove from heat and continue until all of the batter is used up. Serve hot, with butter and maple syrup.
