Buckwheat Banana Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- 1 cup buckwheat pancake/waffle mix
- 1 cup water
- 1 large banana, mashed
Preparation
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the blueberries, orange juice, and maple syrup. Microwave on medium setting for 5 minutes.
In a medium-size bowl, blend the pancake mix, water, and banana with an electric hand mixer. Meanwhile, preheat a nonstick griddle or skillet to 450°F. Pour the pancake mixture onto the griddle and cook for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Then turn the pancakes over and cook for another minute. Transfer the pancakes to a plate and drizzle with blueberry sauce. Serves 2.
Variation
We suggest French Acadian Buckwheat pancake mix from Bouchards Family Farm.
