Why Buckwheat?

Despite its name, buckwheat is not related to wheat and is naturally gluten-free. Its unique binding properties make it an excellent base for egg-free pancakes. 

This pseudograin flour provides a fluffy texture and holds the batter together beautifully, ensuring your pancakes are both tasty and structurally sound.

Boosted with Hemp Powder

To add an extra punch of nutrition, I’ve included hemp powder in this recipe. Hemp powder is rich in protein, essential fatty acids, and fiber, making these pancakes not just delicious but also incredibly nutritious. 

It’s an excellent way to start your day with sustained energy!

Coconut-Free Option

For those who need to avoid coconut, I’ve got you covered! Simply substitute coconut milk with another AIP-compliant milk like my homemade tigernut milk or try homemade sunflower or hemp milks.

Modified AIP: What’s the Deal?

You might be wondering why this recipe includes pseudograins, seeds, ghee, and optional cacao. 
The Modified AIP is a less strict version of the Core (original) AIP diet. Based on recent studies, this version allows for more flexibility while still providing the benefits of the AIP diet. Learn more about the differences between Core and Modified AIP here!
