Once these mixtures have combined you can add your buckwheat. Mix until combined.

Step 3

On low to medium heat take a large non-stick frying pan, brush pan with butter or cooking spray. Use ¼ of pancake mixture per a pancake, cook 2 to 3 pancakes for 3-4 minutes until bubbles in the mixture appear, flip pancake onto other side and cook for an additional 3 minutes until cooked through. Safely transfer to a plate. Loosely cover with aluminium foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining mixture, brushing pan with butter or cooking spray between each pancake batch served.
