Lemon Blueberry Oatmeal Pancakes

Mix the following ingredients together in a large bowl:

  • 1/2 c. white flour
  • 1/2 c. wheat flour
  • 1/3 c. sugar
  • 1/2 t. baking soda
  • 1 1/2 t. baking powder

Set aside. In another bowl, blend the following ingredients:

  • 1 egg
  • Zest from 2 lemons
  • 1/4 c. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 t. vanilla
  • 1/2 c. milk
  • 1/2 c. sour cream or plain yogurt
  • 3 T melted butter

Pour the liquid ingredients into the flour mixture and blend.

Add in 1/2 c. frozen or fresh blueberries and 1/2 c. quick oatmeal.  I used quick oatmeal specifically; old-fashioned oats would probably need to be cooked first.

Cook in a hot, greased skillet or griddle as you would normal pancakes. Makes 6 large pancakes or 10 small ones.  Serve with maple syrup, fruit compote, fresh fruit, peanut butter — whatever you like! I ate mine with a classic side of eggs and bacon:
