Method
 

Make Pancake Batter
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together buckwheat flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and kosher salt until well blended.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs until frothy, then add milk and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
Cook the Pancakes
  1. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes. Grease with butter.
  2. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Remove pancakes from the skillet and serve warm with desired toppings.
