Featuring our Huckleberry Fruit Spread
This simple and delicious recipe can
be made with other Oregon Growers & Shippers jams
- try Marionberry or our Pear & Hazelnut jam!
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted and
cooled
6 tablespoon Oregon Growers & Shippers Huckleberry
Fruit Spread (save some for the tops of the
pancakes!
2 cups sliced fresh strawberries, for garnish
Confectioners' sugar
Warm maple syrup or Vanilla yogurt
Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt into
a medium size mixing bowl. In a small bowl, lightly
beat the egg with the sugar, then stir in the buttermilk,
vanilla, and 2 tablespoons of the melted butter. Add
the liquid ingredients to the flour mixture and stir
until just moistened. The batter should have the consistency
of thick cream with some lumps. Do not overmix. Heat
a large griddle or 2 large non-stick skillets over medium-high
heat, then brush each lightly with some of the remaining
melted butter. Gently drop the batter into the skillets
by heaping tablespoonfuls, 2 inches apart. Evenly add
a few dollops of Huckleberry jam to each pancake. Cook
until the undersides are golden brown and bubbles are
breaking on top, about 1-1/2 minutes. Turn and cook
1-1/2 minutes longer on the other side. Keep the pancakes
warm in a low oven as you cook the rest of the batter.
Divide the pancakes among warmed plates and top with
the strawberries and a bit more jam. Sprinkle with confectioners'
sugar and serve with warm maple syrup or vanilla yogurt.
