Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup whole-grain wheat flour, 1/4 cup buckwheat flour, 1/4 cup all-purpose white wheat flour, 1/2 cup multi-grain oatmeal, and 1 tbsp baking powder.
- Mix the dry ingredients until they are well incorporated.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 2 tbsp honey, and 1 egg until well combined.
- Add the wet ingredients to the bowl with the dry ingredients.
- Stir the mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should still have some lumps.
- Preheat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium heat.
- Lightly grease the surface with a little oil or cooking spray.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until lightly browned and cooked through.
- Remove the pancakes from the griddle and place them on a plate.
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
Tips:
- Ensure your batter is smooth.: Mix the flours and other dry ingredients thoroughly before adding the wet ingredients to ensure even distribution and avoid lumps.
- Use a non-stick skillet or griddle.: Heat the skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it before pouring the batter to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
- Do not overmix the batter.: Gently mix the wet and dry ingredients until just combined to avoid tough pancakes, as overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour.
- Monitor cooking time.: Cook the pancakes until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set before flipping, usually about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Keep pancakes warm.: If cooking in batches, keep the cooked pancakes warm in an oven set to low temperature (around 200°F or 90°C) until all pancakes are ready to serve.
With their unique taste and wholesome ingredients, buckwheat pancakes are sure to become a favorite in your household. Not only are they nutritious and satisfying, but they are also easy to make. Enjoy them with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, yogurt, or a drizzle of maple syrup for an extra special treat.
