Breakfast for Dinner

Since my stomach can only really handle cereal in the morning, we have been missing out on tons of tasty breakfast foods. I came to the realization that breakfast can be served for dinner and seriously enjoyed at that time (thank you Scrubs). So, usually on Sunday night, you can find us around the oven, griddle, etc, cooking up some new tasty items. This past week was Emeril's Buttermilk and lemon scented pancakes with warm blueberry syrup.
I started out with my own recipe for blueberry syrup because I didn't want to waste all of that corn syrup. I have had this recipe for literally years, but I can't remember where I got it.

Blueberry syrup
1c water
2c blueberries (frozen or fresh)
3/4 sugar
1T cornstarch
1T lemon juice
Bring the water to a boil. Add berries; return to boil. Combine cornstarch to sugar. Add to saucepan. Simmer until thickened. Add lemon juice.

Pancakes :
1c flour
2T sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt
1c buttermilk
1 large egg
1T butter, melted
2T fresh lemon zest, finely chopped

Put all of the dry ingredients in a small bowl. In a medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg and butter until fully incorporated.
When I remember, I try to get out the refrigerated ingredients and bring them to room temperature, like you are supposed to. Doesn't always happen. Add the sifted ingredients to the milk mixture and whisk until it is slightly smooth, but still has some lumps. Fold in the lemon zest and allow the batter to sit for a couple of minutes. I didn't get all of the lemon zest it calls for. I zested several lemons that I had sitting around the fridge for a while. I am not sure how I feel about the dried lemon zest. It sure seems like it would be easier.Lightly grease a griddle over medium heat. Cooking in batches, pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes or until the batter bubbles and is golden brown, flip over and continue to cook until golden brown.
Everyone in the family enjoyed the pancakes.
I also served turkey sausage patties. I buy that sausage in the rolled package and always use it in place of pork sausage in my recipes.
