Friday Five Pancakes

From Sophia at RevGalBlogPals

1. Scratch or mix? Buttermilk or plain?
Mix. Neither buttermilk or plain: blueberry! I either throw in fresh blueberries or frozen.

2. Pure and simple, or with additions cooked in?
See number one

3. For breakfast or for dinner?
Breakfast, of course, or brunch. Dinner????

4. Preferred syrup or other topping? How about the best side dish?
If blueberry, then homemade blueberry syrup. (Cook down blueberries, water and sugar until you like it) and whipped cream. If plain, then jelly of some sort.

5. Favorite pancake restaurant?

You can get pancakes in a restaurant? Actually, the inn run by Calvin College in Grand Rapids had Belgian waffles with frozen strawberries and whipped cream at their breakfast bar. Wonderful!

I've already heard about the great writing conference at Calvin College, now you tell me there are waffles too! My daughter will be going there for General Synod (UCC) I wonder if there will be waffles!

Great play! I like mine plain and simple, but the blueberry with the blueberry syrup sound yummy. I'll have to try it sometime.

We're heading to Calvin College for the Worship Symposium. I too wonder if there will be waffles.

My mom used to make pancakes for dinner a lot--or French toast or waffles--but only if my dad was gone. So I guess he agreed with you.

The blueberry-blueberry combo sounds great.

I feel silly not to have thought how to make blueberry syrup. Thanks for that recipe/idea!
