How to make Nectarine Pancakes with Blueberry Jam Ice Cream

Blueberry Jam Ice Cream

  1. Step 1

    In a pot, add blueberries, sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice and bring to a simmer.

  2. 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.

  3. Step 3

    Cool the jam in the fridge, it will thicken upon cooling.

  4. 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.

  5. Step 5

    Layer the jam and ice cream mixture in a container. Freeze as directed.

Pancakes

  1. Step 1

    Mix the milk and cider vinegar or lemon juice and let sit for 5 minutes to create buttermilk.

  2. Step 2

    Add the eggs and vanilla extract and whisk until combined.

  3. Step 3

    Place all the dry ingredients in a seperate bowl and whisk to combine.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

Tips & Tricks

  1. For the ice cream, ensure the jam is completely cooled before layering it with the ice cream mix to avoid melting.

  2. Do not overmix the pancake batter; a few lumps will ensure fluffy pancakes.

  3. Use fresh blueberries for the jam to enhance the flavor.

  4. Serve pancakes with fresh fruit or a drizzle of maple syrup for added sweetness.

FAQS

  1. Can I use frozen blueberries for the jam?

    Yes, you can use frozen blueberries. In fact frozen are often better than fresh if you are out of blueberry season.

  2. Can I substitute half and half in the ice cream recipe?

    Yes, you can use heavy cream or whole milk as a substitute for half and half.

  3. How do I know when the pancakes are ready to flip?

    When bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, it's time to flip the pancakes.

  4. Can I use a different flavor of ice cream mix?

    Yes, you can experiment with other flavors, but vanilla pairs well with blueberry jam.

  5. How long can I store the blueberry jam ice cream?

    The ice cream can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container.
