Source: Food Network Canada
1-1/3 cups all-purpose flour (we used 1/2 white, 1/2 whole wheat flour)
2/3 cup oat bran (near the oatmeal and other hot cereals in the grocery store)
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1-3/4 cups buttermilk
1/2 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 1 medium sized banana)
2 Tbs. butter, melted
1 egg
1 Tbs. maple syrup
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 cup fresh blueberries
1 cup low-fat vanilla-flavored yogurt (for the topping)
Strawberry Sauce
2 cups diced fresh strawberries
3 Tbs. pure maple syrup
1/4 cup orange juice
1 Tbs. cornstarch
Directions :
Combine flour, oat bran, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl. Set aside. Whisk together buttermilk, mashed bananas, melted butter, egg, maple syrup and vanilla in a medium bowl. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix just until dry ingredients are moistened. Do not over-mix! Fold in blueberries.
Using about 1/2 cup batter at a time, cook on a greased preheated griddle. Serve with generous dollops of vanilla yogurt and strawberry sauce! Makes about 10 pancakes.
For strawberry sauce, mix together diced strawberries and maple syrup in a saucepan.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together orange juice and cornstarch and add to the strawberry/syrup mixture. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture bubbles and sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Serve over pancakes.
Enjoy!
