Avoiding gluten? Consider making buckwheat pancakes.

ELMA'S GLUTEN-FREE BUCKWHEAT PANCAKES

These delicious pancakes work fine for people who want to avoid gluten. Despite its name, there's no gluten in buckwheat flour. It's sold in bulk food stores. Light and dark buckwheat flour look almost the same in the bins, but the light works better in my opinion.

 

Stir together in a bowl:

1 cup light buckwheat flour

2/3 teaspoon salt

1-1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Into a large measuring cup, break 2 eggs. Beat lightly. Beat in 2 tablespoons cooking oil. Mix in enough milk to make 2 cups.

Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix to form batter. A few small lumps are okay.

Bake on a hot greased skillet or griddle, using about 1/4 cup batter for each pancake.
