Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Old-Fashioned Buckwheat Pancakes.
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, blend together buckwheat flour and all-purpose flour until well combined.
Step 2
Pour in the buttermilk and crumble in the fresh yeast, stirring gently until the batter reaches a silky smooth texture.
Step 3
If the mixture feels too thick, gradually incorporate more buttermilk, adding one tablespoon at a time.
Step 4
Cover the bowl with a dinner plate and place it in a warm, draft-free spot for 8 hours or overnight, allowing the yeast to work its magic.
Step 5
Once the resting period is complete, fold in the sugar, baking soda, and salt, then mix in just enough hot water to create a thin, pourable batter.
Step 6
Preheat a lightly oiled griddle over medium heat, ready for action.
Step 7
Spoon generous amounts of batter onto the griddle, cooking until bubbles rise to the surface and the edges look set, which should take about 3 to 4 minutes.
Step 8
Flip the pancakes and let them brown on the other side for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 9
