Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup Buckwheat Flour
  • 1 1/4 cup Non-Dairy Milk of choice
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice (or apple cider vinegar)
  • 1/4 cup Applesauce
  • 3 tbsp Vegan Butter, melted plus more for the skillet
  • 3 tbsp Coconut Sugar (can sub with brown sugar or maple syrup)
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt

Instructions

  • Add the lemon juice (or ACV) to the Non-dairy milk and set aside. Let it sit for 5-7 minutes to curdle.
  • Mix the buckwheat flour (plus regular flour if using), baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and salt into a large bowl.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and gently mix until the ingredients are incorporated. (Do not overmix, some lumps are okay)
  • Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add a bit of vegan butter or spray lightly with oil. Then scoop about 1/3 of the batter and pour it into the pan. Cook until bubbles start to appear and the edges look dry, about 2-3 minutes. Then, flip the pancake and cook for 1-2 minutes. Repeat until all the batter is gone.
  • Serve with maple syrup, fresh fruit, and enjoy!
