Buckwheat Pancakes Recipe

This recipe makes delicious, melt-in-your-mouth buckwheat pancakes that are dairy-free and gluten-free to boot. They do contain eggs because eggs are not a dairy product and can be eaten by a lacto-ova vegetarian but they would not be considered vegan. If you've never used coconut oil to top your pancakes, these are a good pancake to try it with. The coconut oil is mellow in flavor and just accentuates the sweet buckwheat flavor in the most wonderful way, especially with a drizzle of pure maple syrup. As with any pancakes, there are a zillion ways to dress these up. Slice up some fresh bananas and add them to your hotcakes, or add in any combination of berries, bacon (or vegan bacon substitute), shredded coconut, nuts, or dairy-free chocolate chips to change things up.
