  2. In a separate smaller bowl beat the eggs. Whisk in the buttermilk and melted butter to the smaller bowl.
  3. Pour slowly the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients. Whisk and mix it till it is well combined and moist. The batter should still be slightly lumpy and thick. Do no over-mix it.
  4. In a skillet on medium heat melt some butter enough to coat the pan. Take a ladle and drop the batter onto the pan and add a few blueberries to each pancake. When the top of the surface starts to bubble flip it over. Then after 1 min check the other side to see if is golden brown if not cook a little bit more till it is. You can always adjust the heat if needed. Serve with the homemade blueberry maple syrup.

Cook for about 2-3 minutes till the berries are slightly softened. Take a fork and mash the berries into the sauce. Simmer the syrup uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes stirring occasionally and mashing the blueberries.

Notes

  • Too much stirring can turn the pancakes into tough, rubbery, and flat disappointments.
