Buckwheat Blueberry Pancakes

Serve delicious Buckwheat Pancakes with Blueberry Syrup, Honey Butter and Fresh Fruit. Top your Buckwheat Blueberry Pancakes with this super simple blueberry syrup.

Make a Super Simple Blueberry Syrup

Here’s what you’ll need: 2 cups fresh blueberries, 1/2 cup sugar or honey, 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons water and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Here’s how you’ll make it: Combine 2 tablespoons water with cornstarch in a small dish, set aside. Bring water, sugar or honey and blueberries to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the water/starch mixture and blend well. The sauce will begin to thicken. Use an immersion blender to make a smooth syrup, adding an additional 1/4 water if sauce becomes too thick.

What is Buckwheat?

A native of Russia, buckwheat is thought of as a cereal, but is actually an herb of the genus Fagopyrum. The triangular seeds of this plant are used to make buckwheat flour. Buckwheat flour has an assertive flavor and is used for pancakes and as an addition to some baked goods. The famous Russian Blini are made with buckwheat flour.

Buckwheat Grouts

Buckwheat grouts are the hulled, crushed kernels, which are usually cooked in a manner similar to rice. Grouts come in coarse, medium and fine grinds. Kasha, which is toasted buckwheat grouts, has a toastier, more nutty flavor.
