Cinnamon Pancakes

Recipe Tips:
You can also prepare just the pancakes and store them individually wrapped in the freezer to toast for a quicker weekday breakfast.

Ingredients

• 1 cup buckwheat flour
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• pinch of salt
• 1 egg
• 3/4 cup reduced-fat buttermilk

Preparation

Step 1

2.To prepare the pancakes: Coat a nonstick griddle with vegetable oil spray and preheat over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir with a fork to combine. In another bowl, beat the egg with a fork until smooth. Add the buttermilk. Beat to blend. Add to the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined (don't overmix).

3.Ladle the batter in 1/4-cup dollops onto the hot griddle. (The batter is sticky, so some of it will stick to the ladle.) Cook for about 2 minutes, or until browned on the bottom. Flip and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until cooked through. Continue, adjusting the heat higher or lower as needed and coating the griddle with vegetable oil spray, until all the pancakes are cooked.
