Pancakes with Blueberry Lemon Syrup

Who doesn’t like pancakes for dinner? This pancake recipe is delicious and easy enough to remember half asleep. The kids love to add in their special additions - sprinkles for Lila and blueberries for Ellis - and I love to top them with blueberry lemon syrup.

Ingredients

• 2 cups flour

• 2 cups milk

• 2 eggs

• 1 tablespoon sugar

• 1 tablespoon baking powder

• 1 pinch salt

• 2 tablespoons butter

• 1 cup maple syrup

• 2 tablespoons blueberry preserves

• 1 lemon, zest

Instructions

1. Mix the flour, milk, eggs, sugar, baking powder and salt together.

2. Heat butter in a skillet and add 1/3 cup of batter. Mix in any additions and flip when the pancake bubbles, about 3 minutes. Cook on the other side for another 3 minutes until cooked through.

3. While the pancakes cook make the syrup by adding the syrup, preserves and lemon zest to a small pot and cooking over low heat.
