Description

Add rich flavor and great height to your pancakes with sprouted buckwheat flour for a powerful start to your day.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs, yolks and whites separated
  • 1 cup kefir (see the link above to learn how to make kefir)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup of sprouted buckwheat flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • Ghee for cooking (see the link above to learn how to make ghee)

Instructions

  1. Beat the egg yolks by hand until smooth; add kefir and vanilla extract.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix together sprouted buckwheat flour, sugar, salt and baking powder.
  3. Put the flour mixture into the kefir mixture. Mix to combine.
  4. Whip egg whites until very stiff (I use KitchenAid mixer).
  5. Fold egg whites into the batter very gently using a soft spatula. Just fold to combine, don’t over mix. The batter will be very airy and light.
  6. Preheat pan, oil it with ghee and scoop the batter in desired amounts onto the pan. For small pancakes, use 1 tablespoon, for bigger ones – 1/4 cup. Cook until each side is nicely browned. Sprinkle with melted butter.
