Ingredients

Scale

For the Pancakes:

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 2 tbs. sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1½ cups milk
  • 3 tbs. canola oil
  • Pat of butter for frying the pancakes
  • Syrup
  • Dollop of sour cream to top the pancakes

  • 1 inch piece of ginger – grated
  • 1 cup of water
  • ¾ cup of sugar
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Zest of 1 orange

Instructions

For the Pancakes:

  1. Combine all of the dry ingredients in a bowl. Combine all of the wet ingredients in a separate bowl and whisk. Mix the wet ingredients with the dry and mix. If the batter is too thick add more milk to thin out the batter. Add the milk a little at a time until the desired consistency is achieved.
  2. Heat a griddle with a pat of butter; when the griddle is hot ladle the batter onto the pan.
  3. When the bubbles appear in the pancakes; flip and finish cooking on the other side.

For the Blueberry Ginger Sauce:

  1. Heat a small sauce pan. When the pan is hot add the sugar. The sugar will seem to burn; don’t worry. Add the water immediately and stir. Add the lemon juice, lemon zest and orange zest.
  2. Turn the heat to low and while preparing the pancakes.
  3. Plate the pancakes. Top with a dollop of sour cream; the blueberry sauce and syrup.

    When I was raising my girls, I'd often make fruit "syrups" for pancakes instead of the traditional maple syrup. I hadn't thought about this for years, since they're long gone. Yours is fabulous with the ginger and citrus additions. I might have to make this all for myself! Thanks!

    Gorgeous picture! What a great idea to have a ginger-blueberry sauce in lieu of the typical maple syrup (not that I'd complain about the latter). Sounds like a delicious twist on the usual buttermilk pancakes!

    Catherine, I'd love these pancakes with the blueberry/citrus/ginger sauce. The problem is that I can't get my better half to eat pancakes! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

    Due to the Jewish holy days, we have been eating lots of meat and I miss other foods. I think, pancakes will be a good meal for us and since I glory in making breakfast for dinner, I think we will have it at the end of the day. Thanks Catherine.

    What a great pancake for breakfast! Blueberries are the best, and the ginger has to add a touch of spiciness to the sauce. Thanks for the recipe, Catherine and have a wonderful week! Hugs

    Pancakes were my absolutely favorite breakfast growing-up. I could still eat a stack of pancakes that would put an athlete to shame (laugh). These look beautiful. Velva

    On Sundays we often have brunch. My family doesn't realize this, but it's so that I don't have to make breakfast AND lunch too. Pancakes with this lovely sauce will have to be included next week!
