basic buckwheat pancakes

This recipe is long overdue, seeing as I make it at least once a week. Once you have this super easy recipe down, you can do so many variations! 

Basic buckwheat pancakes with raspberries and Rebel chocolate mylk on the side ;)

Yields 5-6 pancakes 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp maca or lucuma powder (not necessary, but recommended)
1 ripe banana (mashed)
1/2 cup milk 
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 flax eggs* (can sub real eggs) 
Oil (for cooking - I use coconut)

Method:

1. Combine all dry ingredients.
2. Combine all wet ingredients, add to the dry. The batter should be thick!
3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, and add a little bit of oil. Add about 1/4 cup of batter to the pan, flipping it after a minute or two. Repeat until you get a stack of heaven.
4. Top with fruit, syrup, almond butter or whatever ya want!


*Note: To make your flax eggs, combine 2 tablespoons of flaxseed with 6 tablespoons of water, and keep in fridge for at least half an hour, but preferably overnight.


Pancake Sunday, ladies and gents.
