We had a pretty quiet New Years Eve at home with a bottle of Moet I received as a Christmas gift. We didn't quite make it to midnight so we decided to finish off the Moet with breakfast. A champagne breakfast with Gluten Free Buckwheat Pancakes by Orgran.
We've used this pancake mix once before and probably would never have tried it if it weren't for Coles (our supermarket chain here) having a stall at the Good Food & Wine Show in Brisbane. You could walk the faux supermarket isle they had set up and take whatever you liked to try from their gluten free and health section! I couldn't believe it, someone giving away full sized products as much as you'd like to take home. I was modest and only took a few things such as the pancake mix. Glad we tried this because it's really good!

| Orgran Buckwheat Pancake Mix |
INGREDIENTS:
Stonemilled Buckwheat Flour (49.7%), Rice Flour, Maize starch, Tapioca, Raising agents: Monocalcium phosphate, Bicarbonate of soda.I'm really impressed with the Orgran range, from my first purchase of their Rice Bread Crumbs as an alternative to wheat bread crumbs and their price point it really is a great little range. Looking at their website you'll see the range is quite huge: www.orgran.com
The pancake mix asks for eggs which we did use the first time we made these pancakes. But seeing as we're experimenting with the vegan idea we used the Orgran No Egg mix. Worked great! But I really wonder if this stuff can make a meringue like on the box...

Here is the result. I whipped up some berry compote and drizzled with maple syrup. With the champagne and orange juice it was delicious!! A yummy start to a New Year!!
