Homemade Instant Pancake Mix and Blueberry Syrup

Recipe courtesy Nigella Lawson

Prep Time:15 min

Cook Time:5 min

Level:Easy

Serves:15 pancakes of about 3-inches in diameter

Ingredients

 Pancake mix:

·         4 cups all-purpose flour

·         3 tablespoons baking powder

·         2 teaspoons baking soda

·         1 teaspoon salt

·         2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sugar

 Pancake batter:

·         1 egg

·         1 cup milk

·         1 tablespoon melted butter

Directions

Mix the above ingredients together and store in a jar.

For each 1 cup pancake mix, add 1 egg, 1 cup milk, and 1 tablespoon melted butter. Do not overmix.

Heat a flat griddle or pan over medium-high heat.

Spoon drops of 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of batter onto the hot griddle and when bubbles appear on the surface of the little pancakes, flip them over to make them golden brown on both sides. A minute or so a side should do it.  (Don't squish them down this will make them more dense and less fluffy; just let them cook and flip them)

Blueberry Syrup for Pancakes

·    1/2 cup maple syrup

·    1 1/2 cups blueberries (raspberries or strawberries are great too)

Directions

Put the syrup and blueberries into a pan and bring to the boil.

Let bubble for 2 to 3 minutes, and then pour into a jug and bring to the breakfast table with the pancakes. (If you let simmer too long it will turn into gooey sticky)
