Perfect Pancakes and Waffles

Mademoiselle calls and asks for this recipe regularly!  So, here it is for easy access and for us to share.  It was Mimi’s mother’s weekly go-to recipe to feed five hungry kids, each wanting either a pancake or a waffle.  The recipe works perfectly for both and makes a particularly spectacular blueberry pancake.  However, Mimi asks that you make her one important promise before you enjoy this recipe.  Only use real maple syrup!  That fake stuff does not do justice to the taste of the batter!hard-laugh

  9. 1 cup blueberries (optional)
Instructions
  1. Heat waffle iron or a griddle to 375 degrees. Butter griddle and waffle iron.

Notes
  1. Keep buttermilk powder on hand in the pantry so if you do not have the fresh buttermilk, you can make this substitution.
  2. Use only fresh blueberries. Frozen make the batter too runny. If using, simply scatter a few berries into the batter right after you pour on the griddle.
