How do I make the flour for these pancakes?

You'll blend the quinoa and buckwheat groats together in your blender until they form a fine flour, as specified in the first step.

What kind of plant milk works best for this recipe?

Unsweetened soy milk is recommended for the best results when making these pancakes.

Do I need to add extra sweetener to the batter?

How to Prepare Quinoa and Buckwheat Pancakes [Vegan]

Add the buckwheat and quinoa to your blender and blend until you have a fine flour.
Pour into a mixing bowl. To the blender add the milk and banana and blend until liquidized. Pour over the flour and whisk to make a thick batter.
In a large frying pan coat with a little oil and turn to heat to medium. Pour in the batter (see image) and cook for about 1-2 minutes until the surface starts to bubble. Flip the pancakes over and cook the other side until golden brown.
I didn't sweeten these as you get the sweetness from the banana. However, if you have a sweet tooth drizzle with maple syrup or add a little to the batter before frying.
