Frequently asked

Are buckwheat pancakes really gluten-free?

Yes — botanically buckwheat is a flowering plant, not a grain. If you're highly sensitive, check that your baking powder is labelled gluten-free too.

Can I swap out the Skyr?

Low-fat quark, 0% Greek yoghurt or a vegan soy yoghurt all work. To go fully vegan, replace the eggs with 2 tbsp ground flaxseed + 6 tbsp water.
