Gluten Free Buckwheat Pancakes with Strawberry Sauce

Ingredients
  

For the Pancakes

  • 3/4 c. milk
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 c 120 g gluten free buckwheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1/4 c natural applesauce
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla paste or extract

For the strawberry sauce (from the Baking Mischief website)

  • 2 c. frozen strawberries or fresh if you have them
  • 1/3 c. white sugar
  • 1/3 c. water
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat skillet or pan. 
  • In a measuring cup, combine milk and apple cider vinegar to curdle. Allow to stand at least 5 minutes
  • In a large bowl (or bowl of KitchenAid Stand Mixer) combine buckwheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon. Set aside. 
  • In a smaller dish, beat egg. To that add applesauce, oil, maple syrup, and vanilla paste (or extract.) Mix until combined. Add to dry ingredients, and gently mix in. 
  • Add milk & vinegar mixture to batter, ant whisk until completely combined and all dry ingredients have been incorporated. 
  • ALLOW BATTER TO REST for three minutes prior to cooking. 
  • After batter has rested, use a 1/4 c measuring cup to pour batter onto griddle. Cook 1-3 minutes until bubbles start to form on the side of the pancake. Flip and cook for 1 minute more. Repeat with remaining batter. 
  • Meanwhile, to make Baking Mischief's Strawberry Sauce, place strawberries, sugar and water in a medium sauce pan. Allow water to come to a boil, and cook for 3-5 minutes. 
  • If you put the strawberries in whole, use a potato masher to smash the strawberries. Remove from heat and add lemon juice and cornstarch combined with water. Return to heat and cook until sauce starts to thicken.
