Wild Rice Pancakes with Blueberries and Maple Syrup

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cooked wild rice
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk (or non-dairy alternative)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter (or oil)
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Maple syrup for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cooked wild rice, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to ensure that the dry ingredients are adequately mixed.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter (or oil) until well combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix. It’s perfectly fine if a few lumps remain in the batter.
  4. Fold in the blueberries gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with additional butter or oil.
  6. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
  8. Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with more blueberries if desired.
