It’s nice to be able to fully enjoy the taste of soba in this way. The earthy, nutty flavor makes these pancakes unique. Also, despite its name, buckwheat is not actually related to wheat, so it is naturally gluten-free.

How to make buckwheat pancakes

Making these buckwheat pancakes is similar to making a basic pancake recipe.

1. Combine wet ingredients in one mixing bowl and dry ingredients in another.
2. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and knead the dough just until combined.
3. Bake the pancakes on a nonstick frying pan or griddle. When bubbles form on the first side, flip it over. It is completed when it is inflated and the fire goes through.
4. Enjoy with maple syrup! My strawberry compote is also great with buckwheat pancakes.

buckwheat pancake recipe tips

• Spoon the flour and flatten it. We want these buckwheat pancakes to be fluffy, not dry or dense. It’s important not to put too much flour in the dough, but this can be easily done depending on how you measure the flour. To avoid this, use the method of using a spoon and level. Spoon the flour in the canister or bag and gently pour it into the cup. Flatten the top with a knife and put excess flour back in the bag.
• Please adjust the heat while cooking. Cooking pancakes allows residual heat to build up in the pan, causing the outside of the pancakes to cook more quickly. If you don’t cook it too quickly, the outside of the pancake will burn before it’s even cooked through. If you notice the pancakes browning rapidly, reduce the heat.
• Keep warm while you wait. Unless you have a large griddle, you’ll need to cook buckwheat pancakes in batches. To keep an early batch warm while you make the rest of the dough, stack it on a large plate, cover with foil, and place in a 200°F oven until ready to serve.
• Toppings are important. Buckwheat pancakes aren’t too sweet on their own, so a drizzle of maple syrup balances out the earthy flavor. Other great topping options include strawberry compote, blueberry compote, and fresh fruit such as sliced ​​bananas and berries. You can’t go wrong with a generous smear of peanut or almond butter, or a dash of Greek yogurt for extra protein.
