Pancakes Or Waffles
A staple since the start, these pancakes use a blend of oat, buckwheat, and corn flours for a texture and flavor all their own.
They’re amazing heavily buttered and slathered in maple syrup, but they’re also a total treat plain, thanks to the maple syrup and coconut oil already in the batter.
We use this exact same batter for our waffles, with one small trick: yesterday’s pancake batter becomes today’s waffle batter. The waffles actually come out better when the batter has had a chance to rest and get cold.
The recipe is also very forgiving, so feel free to tailor it to your liking. At the café, we use water, but at home I might reach for the vanilla almond milk that’s always in my fridge. Buttermilk works, too, as does pretty much any dairy or non-dairy milk. You could even add an egg, if that’s what you’re into.

- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1 1/2 cups water or milk of choice
