- 2 cups whole milk

- 3 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil

- 2 large eggs

- Additional oil for pan

- Pure maple syrup, for serving

Method : In a large bowl, combine the buckwheat flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, and eggs. Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture, stirring until just blended. Often when making pancakes, the recipe calls for the wet and dry ingredients to be mixed until 'just blended.' The reason for this is that mixing flour with liquids begins to develop the gluten. These proteins are what give pancakes, muffins, and cakes their structure. Over-mixing can lead to baked goods that are tough, gummy, or unpleasantly chewy.

Heat a thin layer of oil in a nonstick griddle pan or skillet. When the oil is very hot, spoon in about 1/3 cup of the batter for each pancake. When bubbles form on top, flip pancakes and cook another minute or until set.

Serve with maple syrup and enjoy!
