- Ready In:
- 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 9
- Yields:
-
12 pancakes
- Serves:
- 3
ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup buckwheat flour
- 1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 egg
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 cup buttermilk (or 1/2 cup plain yogurt and 1/2 cup milk.)
- 1⁄2 cup fresh blueberries or 1/2 cup thawed frozen blueberries
- 1⁄4 cup chopped walnuts
directions
- Combine the dry ingredients and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, mash the banana.
- To the banana, add the egg and 1/2 of the buttermilk or all of the yogurt, and mix.
- Combine the dry ingredients with the banana mixture, and slowly add part or all of the remaining buttermilk or milk until the batter reaches the desired thinness. (Reserve some milk to adjust the thickness of the batter as time goes on).
- Heat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium high heat until a drop of water will dance on the surface.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle.
- Sprinkle blueberries and/or walnuts onto the pancake as desired.
- When the edge of the pancake is no longer shiny, flip the pancake. The cooked side should be golden brown. If it's dark brown, turn down the heat.
- Continue cooking until the other side is also golden brown. Be sure there is no raw batter around the blueberries.
- If the pancake is too thick for your tastes, thin the remaining batter with a bit of milk or buttermilk.
- Serve the pancakes warm with butter and pure maple syrup.

These were really nice.. I used wholemeal self raising flour, so left out the baking soda & the yoghurt milk combo..I needed to add a little more milk but I think that was due to me using wholemeal flour..I also used lemon yoghurt which worked lovely with the banana..tasted great straight from the pan..no toppings really needed. Thanks for posting!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I'm a professor of physics and astronomy at a small liberal arts college.
My husband is a good cook and a real dear about helping out with the cooking, but I don't surrender the kitchen too often, because I really love cooking, even after a long day—though I really appreciate recipes that are quick and easy.
Aside from cooking, I also enjoy reading (mostly science fiction, though I try to keep my horizons broad) and board games, card games, and role-playing games.
