Do you ever have leftover buttermilk hanging around in the fridge and you aren’t sure what to do with it? You know you want to use it before it goes bad, but don’t have a recipe in mind? That’s exactly where these pancakes were created from. I looked up recipes on my site and saw my Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes and was eager to try a whole wheat version. The result? They are nearly as wonderful as the original! With a healthy twist… I could feel good about reaching for the extra pancake!

Can you use the whole wheat buttermilk pancake recipe for waffles?
We love pancakes here too. I have had buckwheat pancakes. My mom used to make them when I was growing up. Very yummy!
