How to make Nectarine Pancakes with Blueberry Jam Ice Cream
Blueberry Jam Ice Cream
- Step 1
In a pot, add blueberries, sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice and bring to a simmer.
- Step 2
Cook on low heat, simmering for 20 minutes, stirring frequently, making sure to scrape down the edges of the pot to avoid burning.
- Step 3
Cool the jam in the fridge, it will thicken upon cooling.
- Step 4
If using True Scoops ice cream, follow the True Scoops directions, mixing half and half together with the ice cream mix. Otherwise, skip to step 6.
- Step 5
Layer the jam and ice cream mixture in a container. Freeze as directed.
Pancakes
- Step 1
Mix the milk and cider vinegar or lemon juice and let sit for 5 minutes to create buttermilk.
- Step 2
Add the eggs and vanilla extract and whisk until combined.
- Step 3
Place all the dry ingredients in a seperate bowl and whisk to combine.
- Step 4
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and fold and mix until just combined, about 10-12 folds. Do not overmix; there should be a few lumps in the batter.
- Step 5
Cook pancakes on a buttered griddle or pan set to medium heat, 2-3 minutes. When you notice bubbles appearing on the surface flip and cook on the other side until golden brown.
