Ingredients

  1. 1 cup buttermilk
  2. 1 egg, lightly beaten
  3. 2 tablespoons canola oil
  4. 1 tablespoon honey
  5. ½ cup buckwheat flour
  6. ½ cup quinoa flour
  7. 1 teaspoon baking powder
  8. ½ teaspoon baking soda
  9. ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Combine buttermilk, egg, canola oil, and honey together in a large bowl. Mix buckwheat flour, quinoa flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl until blended. Incorporate flour mixture into the buttermilk mixture; stir until evenly mixed.
  2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium heat. Drop batter, 1/4 cup per pancake, onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
  3. If you don’t have buttermilk, mix 1 tablespoon white vinegar into 1 cup of skim milk and let sit for 10 minutes.
  4. If you don’t have quinoa flour, grind dry quinoa 1/4 cup at a time in a coffee grinder/spice mill until you have the right amount.

I made this #vegan by substituting milk and eggs with a combination of applesauce, ground flax seeds, a bit of minced ginger, can of organic light coconut milk. Used 2x amount carob molasses instead of sugar.

These are really good pancakes. You really need to like quinoa and buckwheat to enjoy this earthy flavor. I made a second batch using 1/2 cup buckwheat, 1/4 cup quinoa, and 1/4 cup gf all purpose flour and my kids liked those better. They whip up in minutes and cook up quickly, too. They aren’t too heavy nor too light and crumbly, just a real pancake you can eat with a fork. The batter seems runny and thin at first, give it a second, as you wait to put them on the griddle, the batter thickens. I made these for dinner and put the leftovers in the fridge. They were perfect the next morning after 1 minute in the microwave. Thank you for the recipe.
