buckwheat crepe

Savory French pancake

A buckwheat crepe is a thin French pancake made with buckwheat flour instead of wheat flour, giving it a nuttier flavor and darker color.

Called galettes in Brittany, they're traditionally filled with savory ingredients like ham, cheese, and egg: We ordered buckwheat crepes with mushrooms and gruyère.
