Buckwheat pancakes.

[g8ina]

Brilliant these are

100g buckwheat flour, pinch salt, 1 egg, 300ml milk, 50g melted butter, oil.

Mix the salt & egg into the flour, and slowly add the milk beating all the time. When you have a smooth batter, leave it for 30 mins in the fridge.

Stir the 50g melted butter into the batter.

Cook em in as usual a really hot pan with a little sunflower oil

I filled mine with chopped lychees and Cote D'Or vanilla ice cream

Also great with bacon and eggs ! Used to be a staple of the breakfast menu here.

It's gone downhill massively since its hey day in the 80s. Many happy memories of after-nightshift nosh-ups !

Do they have much of a kick??

[g8ina]

Actually yes, buckwheat has a peculiar aftertaste (which may be an acquired taste tbh), which kicks at the back of the throat

Looking forward to breakfast after a nights rest for the batter.

These buckwheat ones sound good, must try them. Slipped up yesterday never got any pancakes made just got as far as printing out a 'Indian pancake filling recipe' but never got them made yet.

mmmm I'd bought some buckwheat flour a couple of weeks ago when I couldn't find quinoa flour - trying to make quinoa tortillas - first effort was a sticky fail.
Tried a combi of internet recipes for bw pancakes - basically added greek yoghurt and olive oil to flour+milk.
Made totally too fragile pancakes. Added some wholewheat flour and that just about fixed it, but had to make them thicker than I wanted.
Yoghurt made them a little fluffier than normal - next time will not elaborate on basic recipe
