1588. BACON BLUEBERRY BUTTERMILK PANCAKES

serves two


1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
1/4 lb bacon, cut into pieces, cooked until crisp, then drained
1 1/2 cup buttermilk
1 egg
1 tablespoon bacon grease
1 1/2 cup flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Combine the buttermilk, egg and bacon grease. In another bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until everything is just combined.

Heat your griddle and grease it with butter. Pour the batter onto the hot griddle. I used an ice cream scoop for uniformity. Once the batter is on the griddle, drop your blueberries and bacon on top.

Flip when the top of the pancake looks dry and is full of little holes. These aren't quite ready to flip...

Cook until both sides of the pancake are golden brown. Serve hot with butter and syrup.
