Blueberry Almond Pancakes

I love a good breakfast.  It's one of the best things about weekend mornings.  I wake up and immediately start thinking about what I'm going to make.  I go through all the ingredients I know are in the fridge and freezer, debate sweet or savory, eggs or no eggs...

Anyway, these are one of my favorites.  I use buttermilk a LOT, more than probably the average person, but I don't always have it on hand.  These are great for those days.  We had just gotten a delicious batch of blueberries from Costco and I was eager to use them.

Enjoy!

Serves: 4
Ingredients:
1 cup flour (or if you have it, 3/4 flour, 1/4 almond flour)
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3 tbl sugar
1 large egg
1 cup milk
2 tbl butter, melted, plus more for the griddle
3/4 tsp almond extract
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 cup blueberries, fresh

Whisk together flour, baking soda, salt and sugar.  Combine egg, milk, 2 tbl melted butter and extracts.  Stir gently into flour mixture until just combined (will be lumpy).

Let sit while you heat the griddle. Rub it down with butter and pour batter (I have a pancake pen thing that's really cool, you can draw shapes and be a nerd).  Strategically place blueberries on each pancake and wait until it's bubbly and golden.  Flip, cook, serve!
