Sorghum Mochi Pancakes

Adapted from bojongourmet.com


  • ¾ cup (90 g) sorghum flour (I mixed equal parts sorghum, millet and fine cornmeal)
  • ½ cup (75 g) sweet white rice flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 cup well-shaken buttermilk (add 2-4 more tablespoons if you want more thin, crisp pancakes)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup, plus more for serving
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons (45 g) butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup mashed banana + 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, optional
  • Ghee (or Butter/oil combo)

  • In a large bowl, whisk sorghum flour, sweet rice flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add buttermilk, egg, maple syrup, vanilla, and banana/cinnamon (if using).
  • Add melted butter and quickly but gently mix until the batter is just combined. Take care not to over mix the batter or it will become thin.
  • Meanwhile, preheat a skillet or griddle over medium/low heat.
  • Coat the hot pan with a thin layer of ghee or butter and oil. Drop the batter by 1/4 – 1/3 cups. Cook on the first side until the bottoms are golden brown. Flip, and repeat on other side.
  • Serve immediately.
