I like buckwheat. I like Sunday morning pancakes. I like blueberry pancakes. I like sour-cream pancakes... So I made up these that I devoured in two minutes flat:
Rick's Fluffy Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes
(makes about six pancakes -- for two)
rinse some blueberries, drain and set near the stove.
pre-heat a griddle for making pancakes.
mix together with a wire wisk:
1/3 cup unbleached white flour
1/4 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp sugar
mix well separately:
1/2 to 3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
Fold/mix the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined. If you like thick pancakes, the pancake mix will probably be just fine. If you like them a little lighter/thinner, easier-to-pour, mix in a little more milk until you're comfortable with the consistency.
Melt about a tablespoon of butter on the griddle. If the griddle starts to smoke, you need to turn down the temperature on the griddle.
Pour about a 1/4 cup of pancake mix onto the heated griddle. Sprinkle a couple blueberries on top. Wait for bubbles to form and stick without closing on the top of the pancake, then flip. When the pancake starts steaming, test for doneness. Remove finished pancake from griddle, and repeat until you're out of pancake mix.
Serve with warm 100% maple syrup.
Yum yum.
