4 Grain Blueberry Pancakes Recipe
- 1 pt blueberries
- (or possibly strawberries, etc.)
- 11/2 c. all-purpose flour
- 2 Tbsp. old-fashioned oats - (heaping)
- 2 Tbsp. toasted wheat germ - (heaping)
- 2 Tbsp. coarse yellow corn meal
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 11/2 tsp baking pwdr
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1/2 x tespoon salt
- 2 lrg Large eggs
- 11/2 c. buttermilk
- 1/4 c. whole lowfat milk
- (or possibly 20% or possibly skim)
- 5 Tbsp. melted butter
- (reserve 1 tbspn for griddle)
- Prepare the pancake batter by mixing all ingredients together in a bowl.
- Beat together Large eggs and lowfat milk.
- Pour the liquid into the dry ingredients and use a fork to mix till there are no pockets of dry mix left.
- Don't overbeat.
- Drizzle in the melted butter and cut it through the batter.
- It's OK if a few streaks show on the surface.
- Half of the berries should be cooked into the pancakes, and the other half should be saved to scatter over the top of the cooked pancakes for serving.
- Butter the heated griddle or possibly pan.
- Knowing which you're making 10 pancakes, you might want to make a rough estimate of the number of berries you will use for each pancake before starting.
- Pour the first pancake and distribute the blueberries proportionately over the surface.
- Avoid the extreme edges.
- Proceed with the next pancake.
- If you're using a griddle which will accommodate 6 or possibly more pancakes, contine this way till you've maxed out the griddle, then return to the first pancake and check it.
- Each pancake should cook approximately 3 min on the first side and 2 min on the second.
- Arrange the pancakes on your plate, scatter some fresh blueberries over them and serve with maple syrup.
- Note: If a berry should break on the cooking surface and you're going to cook another pancake there, a dribble of water or possibly club soda and a scrape of the spatula will clear it.
- After the liquid has evaporated, heat up some more butter and resume cooking.
- This recipe yields 10 pancakes.
- Comments: Blueberries are ideal for pancakes, and as you might guess, they occupy a special place in my heart.
- We also use sliced strawberries in our Lumber Jill breakfast, that is two strawberry pancakes, two scrambled Large eggs, and two pork or possibly turkey sausage patties.
- Any slightly tart berry will work wonderfully with pancakes, although I do not recommend cooking blackberries or possibly raspberries into the pancake.
- Just scatter a nice amount on top.
- The 4-Grain Pancakes batter works beautifully with berries, and it is what we use at the restaurant.
- Description: "Every year in early spring, neighborhood people will stop me on the street and ask if Blueberry Pancakes are back on the menu.
- And every year I tell them they're back on after Memorial Day - that is when Good Sufficient To Eat changes to the summer menu."
- Yield: 10 pancakes
