Blueberry Syrup For Pancakes And Waffles Recipes

Steps:

• Put the syrup and blueberries into a pan and bring to the boil.
• Let bubble for 2 to 3 minutes, and then pour into a jug and bring to the breakfast table with the pancakes.

Steps:

• Mix blueberries, water, and sugar together using a whisk in a small saucepan over low heat until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium and bring a gentle boil, stirring often, until syrup is thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Whisk lemon juice into syrup; serve immediately or cool.

Steps:

• Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking powder and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine.
• Mix the wet ingredients: In a smaller bowl, whisk the milk, oil and egg together.
• Combine the wet and dry ingredients: Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Mix gently until combined with a wooden spoon. Allow the batter to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Make the pancakes: On a griddle or in a large pan, add a tablespoon of butter and allow it to melt on low heat. Then raise the heat to medium-high. Using a 1/4 cup measure, scoop out the pancake batter and pour onto the prepared griddle/pan. Allow to set a bit on the bottom, and then sprinkle crushed candy bar bits over the top. When bubbles begin to appear around the edge and center, flip the pancake and cook until a peek underneath reveals a golden bottom. Repeat in batches using more butter, if needed, until all done. (Keep the pancakes warm in a 100 degree oven on a baking sheet.) Serve with Scary Blueberry Syrup.
• Make the scary blueberry syrup: In a saucepan over medium heat, add the blueberries, 1 cup water, sugar, lemon zest and juice. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the liquid is reduced to a syrupy consistency, about 10 minutes. Use a wooden spoon or potato masher to break up blueberries as they cook. Once reduced and thickened, remove from the heat and stir in the maple syrup. Taste and add just a pinch of salt to season. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Pour the blueberries into a saucepan and crush them with a potato masher or a wooden spoon until most of the skins are broken.
• Add 1 cup of water and strips of lemon peel and bring to a simmer.
• Turn heat down to low and cook the berries for 5 minutes at just under a simmer.
• Pour the hot berries into a strainer lined with two layers of cheesecloth and let the blueberry juice drip through.
• Twist the cloth to extract all the juice; there should be about 2 cups.
• Discard the berry pulp.
• Combine the remaining 2 cups water with the sugar in a small saucepan.
• Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is clear.
• Wash down the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush, then boil the syrup, without stirring, until it reaches 260 degrees on a candy thermometer.
• Add the blueberry syrup to the sugar syrup and bring the mixture to boil.
• Boil for 1 minute. Let the syrup cool, then add lemon juice to taste. Pour the syrup into two pint jars and refrigerate if you plan to use it in a month or two.
• To can (for indefinite storage) Pour into canning jars with 1/2 inch headspace. Process in hot water bath for 30 minutes.
• Cool.
