Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Buckwheat flour
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Buttermilk
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 Egg
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups Fresh or frozen cherries, pitted
- 1 cup Rhubarb, diced
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together buckwheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine buttermilk, honey, egg, and melted butter. Whisk until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix; small lumps are fine. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
While the batter is resting, make the cherry rhubarb sauce: In a small saucepan, combine cherries, rhubarb, sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the fruit softens, about 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to form a slurry. Add the slurry to the saucepan and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Set aside to cool slightly.
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter or oil.
For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the pancakes warm, topped with the cherry rhubarb sauce.
