Title: PANCAKES & BLUEBERRY SAUCE- Nigella via JulieO
Post by: Thermomixer on August 24, 2009, 06:04:31 am

Marmee here you go, have included the blueberry sauce part of her recipe too as it's really nice too to serve with them.

PANCAKES & BLUEBERRY SAUCE- Nigella

Basic Pancake Mix 
600g plain flour
50g baking powder
2 tsp bicarb of soda
1 tsp salt
50g caster sugar

Combine all ingredients and keep in a container for whenever pancakes are required.

To each cup of the pancake mix, add 1 egg, 1 cup milk and 1 tblsp melted butter.  Whisk to combine and remove any lumps.

Blueberry Sauce
200g blueberries (fresh or frozen)
125ml maple syrup

Place both ingredients in a saucepan, stir to combine and cook over medium heat until thick.

Make pancakes and spoon a little of the blueberry sauce on top and a small dollop of thickened cream.

JD - I needed to make a batch of crepes this morning for Karens chicken & ricotta crepe bake so I made up another batch of this mixture but left the sugar out. All I needed to do then for this recipe was to take l cup of this mixture, an egg, 1 tblspn melted butter and instead of just 1 cup of milk I added 1.5 cups to make it thinner for crepe making.  If I want to use this batch for pancakes I will just add about 20g sugar to each cup of the dry mixture.  It made 5 x 23cm crepes and as these are quite large, DH & I only needed 1 each which meant there were 2 unfilled crepes for the freezer and 1 filled one for Mum - a perfect amount for 1/2 quantity of the filling.

MJ - Just bumping this as I've adapted it to be a great camping pancake mix. To the pancake mixture add:
155g powdered milk
5 Tbsp of powdered egg ( I buy this at Woolies - Farm Pride Powdered Whole Eggs)
Add an extra 1/4 cup of water to each cup of mix when making pancakes.

Here's some great additions:

Add a chopped banana to make Banana Pancakes
Add 1/4 cup chopped dates and grated rind of an orange for Date & Orange Pikelets (make smaller)
Add some chopped lightly cooked apple and 1/2 tsp cinnamon for Apple & Cinnamon Pancakes.

I just love this recipe!

I never make pancakes - too much mixture for the 2 of us.  Things have now changed with this idea.  Thanks to those involved. Making up a batch this afternoon.  :-* :-*

Like your thinking JD  :-* :-* :-* - if you have to dirty the bowl then make it worth the effort of cleaning  :o :o - but wait - it cleans itself.  :-* :-*

We always carry a pancake mix when we travel as it's a quick and easy snack for visitors. This will now be our pancake mix. Thanks.

Reading how others have been having pancakes for breakfast lately reminded me that I still had some of this mixture in the pantry so I made up a batch this morning.  Thought I'd bump it for all the newcomers.

I know it's been a long time since there was a post on this topic so I hope someone can help me.

With regard to the camping version of the pancake mix, does that mean one cup of the dry ingredients (camping pancake mix) and 1 and 1/4 cups of water and 1 Tblspn of butter is all that's needed to make the pancakes?

Thanks in advance  :)
