Delicious and fluffy buckwheat pancakes that are perfect for breakfast!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup buckwheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg (Sub for flax egg or Bob’s Red Mill egg replacer)
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk (or dairy-free buttermilk)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (Swap for honey or maple syrup for a natural sweetener)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Whisk together buckwheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
- Whisk the egg, buttermilk, melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl.

- Serve warm with maple syrup, butter, fruits, or yogurt.
Notes
- The batter can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute buttermilk with a plant-based alternative.
