Recipe View In a medium bowl, whisk together the buckwheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. (2 minutes)

Recipe View In a separate large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract. (1 minute)

Recipe View Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and whisk until just combined. The batter should be thick and relatively smooth. Avoid overmixing. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the buckwheat flour to fully absorb the liquid and the gluten to relax. You should see bubbles forming on the surface. (8 minutes)

Recipe View Heat a lightly buttered griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. The griddle is ready when a drop of water sizzles and evaporates quickly. (3 minutes)

Recipe View Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. (3 minutes)

Recipe View Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side and cooked through. (3 minutes)

Recipe View Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.

For extra fluffy pancakes, separate the egg and whisk the egg white until stiff peaks form. Gently fold it into the batter just before cooking.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a quick substitute by adding 1 1/4 tablespoons of lemon juice or white vinegar to a liquid measuring cup, then filling it with milk to reach the 1 1/4 cup mark. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
Don't overcrowd the griddle; cook the pancakes in batches to maintain the heat and prevent them from sticking together.
Buckwheat flour can vary in coarseness. If your batter seems too thick, add a tablespoon or two of milk until it reaches the desired consistency.

    The hint of vanilla really complements the nutty flavor of the buckwheat. I added some blueberries to the batter, and they were delicious!

  • Frederick Bernier

    I love that these are gluten-free! My kids enjoyed them with maple syrup and fresh fruit.

  • Bart Cormier

    These pancakes are surprisingly good! I was skeptical about using 100% buckwheat flour, but they turned out light and fluffy.

  • Bret Kautzer

    Resting the batter is key! I tried making them without resting, and they were much tougher. Letting it rest makes a big difference.
