Classic Pancakes
makes about 12 small pancakes
Ingredients
1/2 cup (60g) buckwheat flour
1/4 cup (30g) brown rice flour
1/4 cup (25g) tapioca flour
1 tbsp flax + 2 tbsp water
1 1/4 cup + 2tbsp (300 ml) milk of choice – I used coconut
Pinch salt
vegan spread/coconut oil/oil spray to grease the pan
Method
1. Firstly make your flax egg by combining the flax seeds and water into a bowl, mixing and then setting aside to gel. Next, pour the buckwheat flour, rice flour and corn/tapioca flour into a mixing bowl and stir together. Then, scoop the flax egg on top of the flours and pour in the milk. Using a hand whisk, stir all of the ingredients together until the mixture is completely smooth – it should be fairly runny.
2. Then, place a good quality non-stick pan onto a high heat and add in some oil to grease it. Next, take a large spoonful of the pancake mixture and pour it into the pan. Cook on this side for a couple of minutes or so until the mixture begins to cook through, then flip with a spatula, and cook for a further minute or so. Repeat these steps until all of the pancake mixture has been used up. Lastly, serve your pancakes onto plates and top with what you like.
