CORNMEAL-BLUEBERRY PANCAKES
Pancakes are so easy to make that they encourage experimentation. Enter this cornmeal-blueberry variation, which feels like a weekend treat but is well suited for the weekday morning rush. Here, 1/2 cup of cornmeal is swapped out for a portion of the all-purpose flour, giving the pancake a wonderful texture. Make sure to dust the blueberries in flour before adding them to the batter; it will ensure even distribution of the fruit across the pancakes.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Whisk cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and kosher salt together in a bowl. Using the whisk, make a well in the center. Pour the buttermilk into the well and crack eggs into buttermilk. Pour the melted butter into the mixture. Starting in the center, whisk everything together, moving toward the outside of the bowl, until all ingredients are incorporated. Do not overbeat. (Lumps are fine.) Coat your blueberries in a teaspoon of flour so that they don't sink, then stir them into the batter. The batter can be refrigerated for up to one hour.
- Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet, preferably cast iron, over low heat for about 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Turn heat up to medium-low and using a measuring cup, ladle 1/3 cup batter into the skillet. If you are using a large skillet or a griddle, repeat once or twice, taking care not to overcrowd the cooking surface.
- Flip pancakes after bubbles rise to surface and bottoms brown, after about 2 to 4 minutes. Cook until the other sides are lightly browned. Remove pancakes to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet, and keep in heated oven until all the batter is cooked and you are ready to serve.

Steps:
- For the blueberry syrup: In a saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for 5 minutes on low. Stir in the cornstarch, then continue to cook, using a whisk or spoon to mash the larger pieces of blueberries. Remove from the heat when the syrup is nice and thick.
- For the cornmeal pancakes: Mix together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, vinegar, vanilla and eggs. Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently. Stir in the melted butter. If the batter is overly thick, splash in a small amount of milk.
- Heat 1 tablespoon melted butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. When hot, drop in 1/4 cup batter per pancake and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Continue with the remaining batter, using more melted butter as needed
- Stack some pancakes for each serving, placing a pat of butter on top. Drizzle with warm maple syrup if desired, then spoon blueberry syrup over the top. Dig in!

Steps:
- Preheat non-stick griddle. Mix together the dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Beat the eggs and 1 1/2 cups of the milk in a medium bowl until combined, then stir in the melted butter. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined then gently fold in the blueberries. If the batter seems too thick, add some of the remaining milk.

Remove to an ovenproof plate and keep warm in a 200 degree oven until ready to serve. Serve 3 per person with a dollop of orange-honey butter, maple-cinnamon syrup and bananas and berries. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
- Orange-Honey Butter: Place orange juice in a small saucepan over high heat and reduce to 3 tablespoons. Place butter in a bowl, add the orange syrup, honey and salt and mix until combined. Scoop into a large ramekin, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.

BLUE CORNMEAL PANCAKES
This is a recipe from a cafe in Santa Fe, New Mexico. They are good with maple syrup or, if you're ambitious, with homemade peach or raspberry spread. This recipe serves four people, fewer if they're very hungry.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, mix together the blue cornmeal, salt and sugar. Stir in the boiling water until all of the ingredients are wet. Cover, and let stand for a few minutes.
- In a measuring cup, combine the milk, egg and melted butter. Stir the milk mixture into the cornmeal mixture. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the cornmeal mixture until just incorporated. If the batter is stiff, add a little more milk until it flows off the spoon thickly but smoothly.
- Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat, and grease it with a dab of oil or butter. Use about 2 tablespoons of batter for each pancake. Quickly sprinkle a few pignoli onto each cake. When the entire surface of the pancakes are covered with bubbles, flip them over, and cook the other side until golden. It's hard to tell when blue food is cooked through--so give them a few extra seconds if you're in doubt.
- Serve immediately with maple syrup of fruit preserves.

BLUE CORNMEAL PANCAKES WITH BLUEBERRY BUTTER
This tart-but-sweet butter brings an extra hue of cerulean to dusty-blue cornmeal pancakes, but it also happens to be our favorite butter for muffins or scones.

Steps:
- Blueberry butter:
- Add the butter, blueberries, preserves, coriander, and salt to a food processor. Blend until smooth. (Store in the fridge, wrapped in paper or plastic, or in a butter keeper, for up to 5 days; or freeze for up to 3 months.)
- Tip: A stick of butter coming out of the fridge can take a surprisingly long time to come to room temperature. To speed it up, cut the butter into ½-inch pieces and leave on the counter; it should be at room temp in 10 to 12 minutes.
- Pancakes:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a medium bowl or large liquid measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and oil until smooth.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the buttermilk mixture. Use a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to fold together until just combined. Do not overmix. Allow the batter to rest for about 5 minutes.
- Heat a griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and grease lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using 2 heaping tablespoons of batter for each pancake. With the back of the spoon, gently spread the batter into a 3- to 4-inch circle. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until golden brown and the center of the pancake feels slightly firm to the touch, another 3 minutes. Remove from the pan and repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve the pancakes hot with the blueberry butter and maple syrup.

BLUEBERRY-CORNMEAL PANCAKES
This batter is thicker than normal, thanks to the addition of cornmeal. The bubbles that usually indicate when to flip a pancake will not form, so flip when the edges start to set.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200°F. Mix 1 1/4 cups cornmeal, 1/2 cup pastry flour, 1/2 cup all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda and 1 teaspoon salt in large bowl. Whisk 2 cups buttermilk, 3 tablespoons melted butter, egg yolks and honey in medium bowl to blend. Add to dry ingredients and stir until blended. Beat egg whites in another medium bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold whites into batter in 2 additions.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Drop batter by 1/4 cupfuls into skillet. Sprinkle each pancake with 2 tablespoons blueberries. Cook pancakes until bottoms are golden brown and bubbles form on top, about 2 minutes. Turn pancakes over. Cook until bottoms are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer pancakes to large baking sheet. Place pancakes in oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter and blueberries, adding more butter to skillet as necessary.
- Serve hot with maple syrup.
Tips:
- Choose the right cornmeal. Blue cornmeal is a type of cornmeal made from blue corn, which is a variety of corn that is native to the southwestern United States. It has a slightly sweet flavor and a slightly nutty flavor. For the best results, use a finely ground blue cornmeal.
- Use buttermilk or yogurt. Buttermilk or yogurt will help to make the pancakes light and fluffy. If you don't have buttermilk or yogurt on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes tough. Mix the batter until the ingredients are just combined.
- Cook the pancakes over medium heat. Medium heat will help to prevent the pancakes from burning. Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown.
- Serve the pancakes with your favorite toppings. Blue cornmeal pancakes can be served with a variety of toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
Blue cornmeal pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a great way to use up leftover cornmeal, and they are also a good source of fiber and protein. If you are looking for a new pancake recipe to try, I highly recommend blue cornmeal pancakes.
