Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes

Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Ingredients

Makes about twenty-four 3-inch pancakes

1/2 cup buckwheat flour (available at natural foods stores)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
1 1/2 cups blueberries, preferably wild, picked over and, if large, halved
vegetable oil for brushing the griddle
pure maple syrup as an accompaniment
  1. Step 1

    In a food processor blend together the flours, the baking powder, the sugar, and the salt, add the butter, and blend the mixture until it resembles fine meal. In a large bowl whisk together the eggs and the milk, add the flour mixture, and whisk the batter until it is combined well. Let the batter stand for 5 minutes and stir in the blueberries.

    Step 2

    预热烤箱至200°F。热烤盘在国防部erate heat until it is hot enough to make drops of water scatter over its surface and brush it with the oil. Spoon the batter onto the griddle to form 3-inch rounds and cook the pancakes for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden. Transfer the pancakes as they are cooked to a heatproof platter and keep them warm in the oven. Serve the pancakes with the syrup.

  • This is now my go-to buckwheat pancake recipe after trying several and being too lazy on Sunday mornings to run out a get a mix. If you are concerned with all that butter, you can cut it in half and still have excellent results (sometimes I sub yogurt for part of it). They are also delicious the next day if you keep the batter in the fridge. Add bananas and pecans, too! Yum!

  • I substituted 1/4 c almond flour for 1/4 of the wheat flour and also added a splash of almond extract. Also substituted chocolate bits instead of blueberries (which are out of season at the moment). All in all, a nice recipe!

  • Good recipe. The buckwheat flour makes these pancakes wonderfully filling. I added a bit more sugar as other reviewers suggested and loved how they turned out. No batter texture problems... letting the mixture sit the 5 minutes was key. Delicious with saskatoon berry syrup. I froze the left overs and plan on heating in the toaster on crazy mornings.

  • Good as written, but I liked it better the second time I made it: substituted buttermilk for the milk and added an extra T of sugar. With these substitutions, the pancakes are very light and tender--- I bet they'd stand up to sub'ing whole wheat flour for the all-purpose without turning into bricks.

  • I substituted mixed frozen fruit that were microwaved and chopped slightly to smaller pieces. I also only used 3/4 cup of fruit vs 1.5 cups. Very nice! The buckwheat and fruit really complement each other.

  • Very good, easy.Increased recipe 50% and still only made 17 3-4" pancakes--will double next time. Used buttermilk in place of milk, added 1 ripe banana and 1 t. vanilla. Did not add blueberries.

  • Pancakes themselves were yummy (especially with the blueberries!), but the batter was quite runny which resulted in pancakes that were more crepe-like in appearance, not the thick, puffy pancakes I've come to love. I will definitely be looking for a different buckwheat recipie in the future.

  • This is a good simple pancake recipe, but it was waaaay too salty for me. I'll cut out the salt next time. Still yummy, just needs a little tweaking.

  • I just mixed by hand instead of using the food processer, and used melted butter. They came out great!

  • My family loved these. I was a little less enthused. They were good, just not great. It may have been my buckwheat flour-it was a little old.

  • This was great. I needed a little more milk than the recipe called for to give them a nice moist consistancy.
