Pancakes:
1 cup Flour(can use white or whole wheat)
1/2 cup Wheat Germ
1/2 cup Rolled Oats (not instant)
1 TBLSP. Baking Powder
1 TBLSP Cinnamon
1 tsp. Salt
1/4 tsp Allspice
1/4 cup White or Brown Sugar
2 Eggs
2 cups Milk
1 tsp Vanilla
1/3 cup Oil (I use half oil and half applesauce, or you can use all applesauce)
Sift all dry (except oats) into a large bowl.
In a smaller bowl whisk the eggs, milk and oil(applesauce) until well beaten. Add the oats and let sit about 10 minutes to soften.
Meanwhile, make the compote!
2 cups fresh or frozen Huckleberries(or any other berries)
1/4 cup Brown Sugar
1 TBLSP Cornstarch
1/2-1 tsp Lemon or Orange Zest
Add all ingredients to a saucepan and cook on med-low, stirring frequently until thick.
Now pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until just blended.
Heat a small skillet on medium/medium-high with a little butter. Pour enough batter(bout 1/2-1 cup) into the pan to cover the bottom.
You know it's time to flip it when it gets bubbles on top!
Use a spatula to slowly loosen the edges. And with a flick of the wrist, turn it around(Takes a lot of practice!)
Stack on a plate and keep warm in the oven until all pancakes are made.
Top with the lovely huckleberry compote and add a pretty flower.
Eat and enjoy!
