Blueberry Pancakes With Blueberry Compote Food

BANANA & CINNAMON PANCAKES WITH BLUEBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Tip the flour and cinnamon into a bowl, then break in the whole eggs, pour in the milk and whisk together until smooth. Stir in the banana. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until light and fluffy, but not completely stiff, then fold into the pancake mix until evenly incorporated.
• Heat a small amount of oil in a large non-stick frying pan, then add a quarter of the pancake mix, swirl to cover the base of the pan and cook until set and golden. Carefully turn the pancake over with a palette knife and cook the other side. Transfer to a plate, then carry on with the rest of the batter until you have four.
• To make the compote, tip the berries in a non-stick pan and heat gently until the berries just burst but hold their shape. Serve two warm pancakes with half the berries, then scatter with the mint leaves and sprinkle with a little cinnamon. Chill the remaining pancakes and compote and serve the next day. You can reheat them in the microwave or in a pan.

• For the blueberry compote: Combine the blueberries, sugar, lemon zest and 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice in a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is thick and syrupy, about 10 minutes. (Don't let the berries cook too long or they will become mushy and lose their beautiful shape.) Remove from the heat. Gently stir in the chopped mint if using. Keep warm.

• Bring the mixture to a vigorous simmer or medium boil, and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries pop and release their juices, and soften.
• Remove from heat and give a little taste to see if you need any extra sweetener or lemon juice, then add in the reserved ¼ pound (or ¾ cup) of fresh blueberries and stir those in.
• Allow the blueberry compote to cool (I expedite the process by using my fridge), allowing the compote to thicken as it cools.
• Spoon into jars or a covered container, and use as needed, either warm or cold.

LEMON RICOTTA PANCAKES WITH WARM BLUEBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• For the blueberry compote, in a saute pan, combine the blueberries, cornstarch, 1 cup sugar, water, lemon curd, orange juice, and a pinch of salt. Gently cook over medium heat until the blueberries are tender but not broken down, and the mixture simmers and thickens. Remove from the heat; stir in the butter and vanilla. Set aside to cool slightly.
• For the pancakes, in a medium bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir in lemon zest. Set aside. In a large bowl, mix the egg yolks and the cheese. Fold in the dry ingredients alternately with the milk. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until medium-stiff peaks form. Fold into the batter.
• To complete the recipe, heat a buttered nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat or to 350ºF (water drops on the skillet should skitter or sizzle when hot). For each pancake, pour 1/4 to 1/3 cup batter and cook until bubbles form on top. Turn and cook until the bottom is golden brown and the pancake is cooked through.
• To serve, stack three pancakes on each plate with a dollop of the remaining prepared lemon curd between pancakes. Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar and pour compote over the pancakes.

BLUEBERRY TOPPING (BLUEBERRY COMPOTE)

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over low-medium heat combine the blueberries, lemon zest, juice and sugar stirring regularly until they have released a lot of liquid and it starts to boil.
• Mix together the cornstarch and water then stir it into the blueberries. This part is optional and you can let the juice reduce naturally, which will take a little longer.
• Turn the heat down so the mixture is just simmering.
• Simmer stirring every so often for about 10 minutes until the blueberries have softened and the liquid has thickened to a consistency you like.
• To test: run your finger through the juice on the back of a spoon and it should leave a clear line that doesn't run. It will also take a few seconds to return to the sides of the pan when you stir it.
• Remove from heat. You can serve this blueberry sauce warm, at room temperature or cold. Store in a jar with an airtight lid for 7-10 days.
