Jeanie's Feed a Crowd Pancakes




Every year, my family has an Easter brunch. This year, my sister, Jeanie, made a pancake casserole. As with everything My Jeanie makes, it was amazing. No, wait, it wasn't amazing. It was out of this world! Since then, many people have asked her for the recipe. So, ladies and gentleman, for the first time on any stage, in her own words, I give you Jeanie's Feed a Crowd Pancakes!

1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup melted butter
1/2 cup maple syrup (I actually used the real thing)

2 cups flour
2 tbs, sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg
3 tbs. melted butter
2 cups buttermilk
fresh blueberries

Heat oven to 350. Combine brown sugar, butter and syrup (you could heat first but I didn't) and pour into 13 x 9 pan. Beat remaining ingredients until blended.

Pour over syrup mixture.

Sprinkle blueberries over batter. (They will sink to bottom anyway, but I put them on top.) Bake uncovered 30 to 35 minutes or until top springs back when touched in center. Cut into squares.


Tips:
Jeanie: Remember, my measurements are merely "guidelines." You can take it from there. Enjoy!

Joey: In my opinion, you can never have too many blueberries, so I added some on the bottom, and then threw some more on the top too!!! I was also VERY generous with the syrup and brown sugar, because, well, more is more.
And since I can never leave a recipe alone without thinking up variations, I think this would be FABULOUS if you added bananas or peaches. yum!
THANX My Jeanie!!

Hey - it looks really good in the picture! Feel free to jazz up any of my recipes, cause as we do know, more is definitely more. Sister

To all:

Please that the phrase "More is More"(tm) is trademarked by Hatnight (tm). :)

If not with the USPTO yet, then in our minds!!

And that should read: "Please note THAT the phrase. . ."
