Banana Buckwheat Pancakes
This week I am making banana buckwheat pancakes. This recipe only uses buckwheat flour so it's naturally gluten-free as there are no other flours needed in this recipe. That is one of my favorite things about these pancakes. Buckwheat flour makes a very nice, yet hearty pancake. Buckwheat is an ancient grain, and it has a lot of natural fiber and nutrients that you don't find in a regular pancake. I like to add bananas to the pancakes to make them just a teeny bit more moist, not that they're dry. You can always add any other fruit that you like, if bananas aren't your favorite, like blueberries or strawberries. I personally like bananas because they remind me of my great-grandmother, Mema. These pancakes remind me a lot of her.
I was about 7 when I first went to visit my 75+ year old great-grandparents in Kona, Hawaii and they had to tweak their regular eating habits to better fit the pallet of a child. Along with my food needs, Mema always wanted to make sure we ate whole grains and would only cook with less processed sugars, like honey and maple syrup. I still have dreams about Hawaiian honey. We would pick it up at the local farmer's market and I remember it coming in a coffee-like can. I would have a spoonful of this thick honey as a treat. Yum! Anyone out there that can help me find Hawaiian honey like this, please send me a message....Mema is certainly one of the people, along with my mother and grandmother, I have to thank for teaching me the benefit of whole foods at a very young age. We would go to the health-food store, no Whole Foods in Hawaii back then, and she would get 4-5 different flours for the pancakes. They were certainly stick to your ribs pancakes, but they were tasty. She also insisted on only using maple syrup, even though she was quite frugal. My mom was certainly shocked when I came home from my summer with Mema and insisted on only having real maple syrup with my pancakes.
I've made these pancakes for several friends and family members and they never know or even think about the fact that it's gluten-free. This recipe is simple and easy to make. I like to top mine off with fresh bananas or blueberries, a little bit of butter and maple syrup. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do. Please let me know what you think in the comments below.
