The best part of these buckwheat pancakes is that they use no oil or refined sugars but they still taste scrumptious. You can also serve it with salad just as I did. As they are so dense they need to cook longer than normal pancakes. Most importantly they are gluten - free.
The dry ingredients include buckwheat flour, cornmeal, coconut flour, flax meal, cinnamon, baking powder and date sugar.

Ingredients:

- 1/2 cup coconut flour (or other flour of your choice)
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon flaxmeal
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 4 tablespoon date sugar (found in a natural foods store, I use Bob’s Red Mill brand)
- 2 cups soy milk or your choice of non-dairy milk
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 cup water
Method:
Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together. Add wet ingredients and stir to combine. Add additional water if necessary to thin the batter. Pour onto a hot griddle and cook at least 4-5 minutes per side to cook through. Enjoy with maple syrup or heated fruit.
