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.

Ingredients

1 cup buckwheat flour
1.5 teaspoons white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
0.25 teaspoons baking soda
0.25 teaspoons salt
1.25 cups buttermilk
1 large egg , beaten
0.25 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon unsalted butter , or as needed

Instructions

1

Whisk buckwheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl.
2

Beat buttermilk, egg, and vanilla together in a large bowl.
3

Pour flour mixture into buttermilk mixture; whisk until batter is thick and smooth. Let batter rest until bubbles form and batter relaxes, about 5 minutes
4

Melt butter on a griddle over medium heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the hot griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
5

Serve with berries.
