Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce


Pancakes
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  1. Combine milk with vinegar in a medium bowl and set aside for 5 minutes to "sour".
  2. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl. 
  3. Whisk egg, butter, and vanilla extract into "soured" milk. 
  4. Pour the flour mixture into the wet ingredients and whisk until lumps are gone.
  5. Heat a skillet over medium to medium low heat, and coat with cooking spray. Pour  batter onto the skillet, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip with a spatula, and cook until browned on the other side.
Serves 2-4, depending on how many pancakes you eat!

Blueberry Sauce
  • 2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen 
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup sugar (depending on your sweetness preference, I used 1/3)
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon grated orange zest (optional)
  1. Combine the sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan. Whisk in the water until the sugar dissolves.
  2.  Add the blueberries and orange zest- bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Let the sauce boil for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve warm.
