Blueberry Wheat & Corn Pancakes
1 cup soy milk
1/2 cup water
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup whole grain corn flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
2 tablespoons light tasting olive oil
1) Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C)
2) Combine water & soy milk in small bowl
3) In large bowl, combine both of the flours, the baking powder, baking soda, & salt.
4) Stir in the milk mixture until just combined. Fold in the blueberries and let the batter sit for 5 minutes.
5) Lightly oil a skillet or griddle and heat over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook until pancakes are bubbly on top and edges are slightly dry looking. Turn and cook until pancakes are browned. Transfer to a baking sheet to keep warm in the preheated oven (I cover them with tinfoil) while cooking the remaining batter. Serve warm with all natural (no sugar added) blueberry jam.
Hints:
*I use the above recipe for dinner pancakes with the jam.
*I add 2 tablespoons of maple syrup into the soymilk & water (stir until syrup dissolves) for a slightly sweeter breakfast version. Then we serve with warmed 100% pure maple syrup.
SO HOW'D IT GO?
I didn't have any blueberry jam (nor any syrup) to top these pancakes with. I improvised by placing a square of berry-flavored-dark-chocolate on top of each hot pancake (so that the chocolate melted into a syrupy topping). Blueberries + Pancake Batter + Berry Chocolate = Heavenly!
Just made these again for a friends birthday they went over fantastic. I used figs instead of blueberries YUM!
These were delicious, I used soy milk in place of water as suggested. I served them with tofu breakfast scramble and some fresh pineapple. I was a little concerned that the batter was too thin, but I tried a little bit at first and it worked perfect.
These were light and fluffy and really good. I substituted raspberries for the blueberries and also just used 1.5 cups of soy milk (no water). Thanks!
