Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Buckwheat flour
- 0.5 cup Whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Skim milk
- 3 large Egg whites
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- Cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the buckwheat flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix the skim milk, egg whites, vanilla extract, and honey. Whisk the wet ingredients until the honey is fully dissolved.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; a few lumps are fine.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear dry, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook until the other side is golden brown, about 1-2 minutes more.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve immediately with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, yogurt, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
