1. Infuse the Twinings blackcurrant & blueberry tea bags in the boiling water for 10 minutes then leave the water to cool.
2. Mix the flaxseed with 4 tbsps water and leave to thicken up - this will help bind your ingredients together.
3. Mix the buckwheat flour into a bowl with the lemon zest, maple syrup, thickened flaxseed mixture and blackcurrant & blueberry tea water. Making sure to add the tea water gradually - stirring as you do so.
4. Add 1 tsp coconut oil to a pan over a medium heat.
5. Once the oil has melted add about 2 tbsps of the mixture to the pan - or use 1 large ladle.
6. Cook on one side for 2 minutes and then flip over and cook on the other side for a further 1-2 minutes.
7. Repeat with the rest of the mixture. You should make 4-5 pancakes.

Serve the pancakes with fresh blueberries, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup and lemon zest with a freshly brewed pot of Twinings The Full English breakfast blend - the perfect pairing to start your guests day.
