Ingredients
- 1 cup buckwheat flour 130 grams
- 1 cup whole wheat flour 140 grams
- 1 teaspoon baking soda 6 grams
- 1 teaspoon baking powder 5 grams
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar 100 grams
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon 3 grams
- 1/2 teaspoon salt 3 grams
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 5 grams
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups buttermilk 16 ounces
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil 2.6 ounces
Instructions
- Whisk all of the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
- Then add the wet ingredients to the bowl. Vanilla, eggs, buttermilk and oil. Use a whisk and mix gently just until combined. Do not over mix.
- Prepare a hot griddle or cast iron skillet by melting butter or oil in it.
- Drop batter with a ladle onto the hot griddle (about ⅓ cup of batter per pancake). When you see bubbles form on the top of the pancake, it is time to flip it.
- After flipping the pancake, let it cook for another minute or two, then move it to a plate.
- Continue with the remaining pancake batter until all the pancakes are cooked.
