Buckwheat Pancakes
These buckwheat pancakes came about for a few reasons: I get lots of requests for anything breakfast, I'm trying to cook with more whole grains, and I heard someone say it's almost impossible to make a great pancake using 100% buckwheat flour.
Poppy Seed-Lemon Bars
The bright flavor of lemon combined with poppy seeds really kicks the traditional lemon bar up a notch. They're vibrant, fresh tasting, and pleasantly sweet. I like to use black poppy seeds for a pop of color and just a little more eye appeal.
Chocolate Chip Cookies for Special Diets
Be sure to use a heat-stable sugar substitute in these sugar-free chocolate chip cookies. Since the substitutes vary in strength, use an amount equal to 3/4 cup regular sugar according to the package. To make the cookies completely sugar free, be sure to use chocolate chips made with a sugar substitute. These cookies freeze well.
