Ingredients
- 1 cup Buckwheat flour
- 3 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter or coconut oil (melted)
- 0.33 cup Chocolate chips (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Butter or oil (for greasing the pan)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: buckwheat flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix it with the milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter or coconut oil.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Step 4
If using chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter or oil.
Step 6
Spoon about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread the batter slightly with the back of a spoon if needed.
Step 7
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until cooked through.
Step 8
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Step 9
Serve the pancakes warm, topped with your choice of syrup, fresh fruit, or an extra sprinkle of chocolate chips.
