Amazingly Easy Hodgson Mill Gluten-Free Buckwheat Pancake Recipe
I had posted a recipe for gluten-free buttermilk buckwheat pancakes, and while it's a great recipe, this one is simpler to make and requires fewer ingredients. I discovered it on the back of a box of Hodgson Mill Buckwheat Flour, and the people at Hodgson Mill were happy to let me reprint it here for you.

Get yourself a box of their buckwheat flour and try this recipe! You'll be wanting to have pancakes for breakfast every day. Extra batter can be refrigerated for several days.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 5 minutes

Total Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup buckwheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 Tbsp melted butter or margarine

Preparation:

Preheat griddle or large skillet (if electric) to 375 F. Grease lightly with oil. Griddle is ready when small drops of water sizzle and disappear almost immediately.

Mix dry ingredients together; add egg, milk and butter or margarine, beating well after each addition.

Pour 1/4 cup batter for each pancake onto hot griddle. Cook 1 to 1½ minutes, turning when edges look cooked and bubbles begin to break on the surface. Continue to cook 1 to 1½ minutes or until golden brown.

Serve immediately.

Great base recipe to work from, Member Spunkiethecat

Both my sons and daughter are on a gluten free diet, so it has been my mission to make a yummy pancake to start their day. Both sons are picky eaters and also vegetarian, so I try and add protein in those things they will eat. So I took this recipe and added the following ingredients to make them rich of protein and super yummy... 1 cup buckwheat flour 2 tsp baking powder 3 Tbsp cane sugar 1/2 tsp salt 2 tsp vanilla 3 eggs 2/3 cup milk 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (I also added, 2 tsp of chia seeds and 1/3 cup pecans pulsed together to make a paste, and mixed these with the wet ingredients first.) I poured the batter in 2-3 inch sizes, and used blueberry syrup. This recipe makes about 16 little pancakes, enough to feed 3 hungry kids that were eating them faster than I could make them. I also whizzed up a tastey pear, banana and raspberry smoothie, with a scoop of veggie powder, and squirt of cod liver oil. The smile on my face couldn't have been bigger watching them enjoy their nutritious breakfast.
