Ingredients

• 1 cup Buckwheat flour
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 2 large Ripe bananas
• 1.25 cups Buttermilk
• 1 unit Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil or butter (for greasing the pan)
• 0 Maple syrup or fresh fruit (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the buckwheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined. Set aside.

Step 2

In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until thoroughly combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula. Avoid overmixing; a few lumps are fine.

Step 4

Drizzle in the melted butter and fold it into the batter until just incorporated. The batter should be thick but pourable. If it seems too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of buttermilk.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or butter.

Step 6

Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spacing them apart to allow room for spreading. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm, topped with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
