Recipe for buckwheat pancakes

[seedcorn]

Loved Aunt Jemima's buckwheat pancakes. Contacted them, no longer sell that mix. I've tried several different brands, none are close. Yes, even the organic brands weren't-see how desperate I've become? I want that nutty flavor. I even bought buckwheat flour at local organic place-no flavor. Have everyone went to the light colored flour?

So any solutions?

Watching this post. I have some buckwheat flour in my pantry. I used to love those pancakes.

So what color is your flour? Stuff around here is a light tan. Aunt Jemima's were darker than the flour is now.

Let me go get it...

Its Bob's Red Mill organic whole grain Buckwheat Flour. Light tan.

Here is the recipe on the back:

1 Tbsp Active Dry Yeast
1/4 C warm water
1 C whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 C BW flour
3/4 tsp salt
1 C cold water

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Combine dry ingredient. Stir in yeast and cold water. Cover and refrig overnight or several hours. Then combine with:
1 Tbsp brown sugar
2 T margarine or butter
1/2 t of baking soda
1/4 C hot water

Let stand for 30 minutes and then bake on a lightly greased griddle.

Well, since I got up on the step stool and found it and have it here on my desk, maybe, just maybe, I will!

@seedcorn, same problem here. I've been searching for that remembered buckwheat flavor for the past few years with no success.
