For the blueberry sizzle:
1 1/2 teaspoons butter
1 1/2 cups blueberries
3/4 cup maple syrup
dash of nutmeg
For the buttermilk griddle cakes:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons honey
Directions:
Prepare the blueberry sizzle:
1. In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the fruit and cook until it begins to soften slightly, about 2 to 3 minutes.
2. Add the maple syrup and nutmeg. Bring to a boil and take off the heat. Set aside and keep warm.
For the buttermilk griddle cakes:
3. Mix the flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl. (This can be done the night before and kept covered on the counter.)
4. Lightly beat the buttermilk, egg, butter and honey together.
5. Add the liquid ingredients all at once to the flour mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until just moistened. Do not overmix, a few lumps are fine.
6. Warm a lightly greased griddle pan over medium heat. The pan is ready when a few drops of water sprinkled on the griddle form fast-moving bubbles.
7. Pour batter onto the griddle: 1/8 cup for small or 1/4 cup for large pancakes. When the tops of the pancakes are covered with holes and the bottoms are golden brown, flip to brown the other side.
8. Serve the griddle cakes topped with the blueberry sizzle.
