Buckwheat Pancakes

Yes you can have pancakes while detoxing & balancing your weight!  Enjoy these by making in the morning or making ahead of time and just reheat in the morning .  They also freeze very well.   Buckwheat is a nutritious gluten free grain that will put a pep in your step anyday!

These whole food ingredients provide valuable fiber for clearing and cleansing your digestive tract. They will feed your body and power it up for the day.

You can adjust the texture and quality of the pancakes by adjusting the amount of water. A thick batter will make thick hearty pancakes. Adding more water will make thinner, more flexible pancakes.

Ingredients:

(use organic whenever possible)

  • 2 cups buckwheat groats
  • 1/2 cup brown rice flour
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 3 cups water or more for desired consistency
  • Coconut oil for skillet
  • 100%  maple syrup to top ‘em off

Grind buckwheat groats in a food processor or blender until they turn into flour. Vita-Mix blenders are great for this but your regular blender may do the trick, as well.  Grind chia seeds into a fine powder using a clean coffee or spice grinder.  Combine all dry ingredients  Add wet ingredients and stir until smooth. The batter should be somewhat thin like regular pancake batter.  Heat skillet well. Melt coconut oil in the skillet and pour batter in as you normally would to make pancakes.

Variations:

For more nutrients and yumminess you can add berries, chopped apples, crushed walnuts, etc. to the batter.
