Buckwheat Pancakes

Buckwheat Pancakes

Buckwheat gives these pancakes a richer, nuttier flavor than the usual stack. Ripe bananas mellow its earthiness and keep the centers tender.

Butter Club Notes

Buckwheat gets a bad reputation because people expect it to taste like regular pancakes, and it doesn't. It has a richer, nuttier flavor that I actually like even better, especially with real maple syrup. The ripe bananas soften that earthy flavor and keep the pancakes incredibly tender. If you've got a couple of bananas on the counter that are a little past their prime, this is exactly where they belong.
