Fist Full of Blueberries

We got a little container of blueberries in the farmshare, and I saw a recipe on The Gingered Whisk for Blueberry Cornmeal Pancakes. Blueberry pancakes tend to be a bit too fluffy and sweet for me, and don't stand up well to the blueberries. This recipe is fluffy, with some crunchy. I added some lemon zest to enhance the flavor of the blueberries. I also used 2 cups milk and the juice of one lemon instead of buttermilk.

Ingredients

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup quick cooking oats
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
zest of 1/2 orange
1 egg beaten

Heat the buttermilk in the microwave for 30 sec. Pour the oatmeal into the warmed buttermilk and let it sit for a minute. Combine all of the ingredients and then cook on a griddle. Makes four good sized pancakes. I ate all four, but they're pretty hearty so you could probably feed two with this recipe.
