SampsonI've been meaning to tell you about these pancakes... but with puppy sitting, my parents visiting, and some more dog sitting, I haven't had much blogging time. Didn't mean to hold out on you ;) And of course I have some more doggie photos for good measure!
DanteSo the recipe (found here) is for Kabocha Buckwheat pancakes. I don't know if it was the buckwheat flour, the spices (cardamom), or the combination of the two that put these over the top, but I was floored!!
While I didn't have buckwheat flour on hand, I did have some kasha (roasted buckwheat), which ground to a flour easily in my spice grinder (aka coffee grinder). I also used some kabocha I had already roasted (instead of grated fresh squash). I'm sure any other winter squash or sweet potato would work as well.
I can't wait to try more recipes using buckwheat flour... have you used it before? Or do you have any recommendations??

I've never tried buckwheat flour but now I'm intrigued - your pancakes sound fabulous! And yay for more puppy pictures :)
i have only eaten things w/ BW flour in them never cooked w/ it myself but it's GF and i really should...great job on the pancakes!
I just got some kasha yesterday! I'll use the rest of it to make these pancakes... they look really good! ;)
Love these latest posts on the race and the pancakes! Delicious. The dogs aren't bad either... Hopefully you'll get some time for yourself now! I owe you about a million favors, so feel free to cash in at any point!
I bet that kasha is equally delightful. I love using buckwheat, should experiment with your ground kasha.
Those pancakes are the most beautiful I've ever seen! So tempting, I might even try to make me own. Yums! Thanks for the inspiration :D
Mmm, cardamom! I love that spice. And it's so beautiful in pod form that I like to stop by my spice rack and just admire the jar. Now I need to follow your lead and try it in pancakes--sort of like India meets America in breakfast form?
Happy Sunday, Shannon!
Um yeah so these pancakes are awesome. Kabocha. Score. Major score.
Yay for dog sitting! You are the puppy master!
Those look so much better than the sad-looking pancake I made today.
you are so very creative with health foods. we need to get you a book deal.
i would love to try and create a buckwheat fritter--a healthy fritter! LOL not possible right?

I never tried buckwheat - but these pancakes look amazing! And those doggies are adorable!
That sure is a pretty looking plate of pancakes!! I've never used buckwheat flour (or kasha) before- I will have to pick some up to play with! Cute puppers pictures!!!
I have buckwheat flour... bought it awhile back for pancakes :) I've never had kabocha before though. I need to get my hands on this deliciousness asap.
PS - I'm ready for a walk any day!! :D
I've never used it before, but the pancakes look divine. And oh that puppy tail - too cute!

Those pancakes look and sound phenomenal! I NEED to check them out since I am intrigued by buckwheat flour - thanks for sharing.
Wow...those look amazing!!
Those pancakes sound terrific and I have lots of buckwheat flour so I would love to make these! Yum!
wow, wow, wow, those look delicious! i can never find kabocha anywhere, but i always have sweet potatoes on hand, so maybe i could use those :)
I've never had REAL buckwheat cakes, but I've heard that they're totally worth it :) And those spices sound amazing in the pancakes!
Oh those look amazing! Every time I've tried using buckwheat flour previously, I was very disappointed with the results, but perhaps I should try grinding my own- It seems like that makes a big difference!
What a great idea to make your own buckwheat flour...and with kabocha, my favorite! These pancakes look TO DIE FOR!
I am a BIG fan of buckwheat flour - and those panackes look GREAT!!
That is such a beautiful stack o' pancakes! I love the color! Buckwheat flour sounds very interesting. And if it can make pancakes look like as good as that, I'm game! The puppy pics are the cutest :)
