Blueberry-Almond Pancakes With Cinnamon-Toasted Almonds

"I confess to making breakfast for dinner for my family at least once a week, and I do not feel one ounce of guilt about it. :) This recipe is by far their favorite. These pancakes are lightly almond-flavored with juicy, bursting warm blueberries. Garnishing with cinnamon-toasted almonds adds a nice crunch and depth of flavor."

directions

  • Preheat a large skillet or griddle to medium heat. Preheat oven to low heat (180 F - 200 F).
  • In a medium mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In another medium mixing bowl, whisk one egg until frothy. Then add milk, oil and almond extract; then whisk until combined.
  • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and whisk in the wet ingredients all at once.
  • Using a 1/4 cup sized measuring cup, pour batter onto a hot, greased skillet/griddle over medium heat, leaving enough space between each pancake for them to expand.
  • Immediately place six blueberries (evenly spaced) on top of each pancake.
  • Cook for 2-4 minutes or until surface begins to bubble and edges appear slightly dry. Turn and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown. To keep pancakes hot until ready to serve, place on a heat-resistant plate in the oven on low heat.
  • Meanwhile, bring a small skillet to medium heat. Toast the slivered almonds, stirring often, until fragrant and light brown in color (around 8-10 minutes). Remove from heat, immediately sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar, toss to evenly incorporate and set aside to cool slightly.
  • Serve pancakes hot with butter, maple syrup and toasted almonds sprinkled on top.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>My name is Rebecca, but my family and friends call me Becky. I am&nbsp;33 years old and live in Rochester, New York, USA. I am a life-long resident of Western New York and can't say as I'd ever want to live anywhere else. I grew up on a small dairy farm in rural Western New York and love country living. Although my husband and I live in a suburb right now, we hope someday to move back to our roots and live a peaceful country life. <br /><br />My husband and I have been married for 10 years.&nbsp; We have a beautiful 5-year-old&nbsp;daughter and a 3-year-old&nbsp;son.&nbsp;&nbsp;I am amazed at how quickly our kids are&nbsp;growing and developing.&nbsp; I read a lot about and hold my own personal skepticism regarding the affects of additives such as&nbsp;preservatives,&nbsp;hormones, artificial colorings, artificial sweeteners, caffeine, allergens, etc.&nbsp; With the increasing number of children and adults with food allergies, I am suspicious that the last century&nbsp;of our nation's food industry improvements have contributed.&nbsp; I'm doing the best I can to protect my family&nbsp;from the risks, but it is difficult to avoid every additive.&nbsp; I have friends and family with food allergies and know how difficult it is to cope with food restrictions. I enjoy the challenge of&nbsp;cooking for those with food allergies but can't imagine making it an every-day affair.</p> 8727502"
