Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    These are my house pancakes - always a hit, always a double batch. If you double the batch, you can just use one tub of sour cream, you don't even have to measure! 1 tsp (or 2, if you are doubling) of vanilla extract really elevates these beauties. Whenever I need to make a berry/fruit sauce, I now always roast it with a sprinkle of brown sugar, and finish with a hit of vanilla extract, per this recipe. Typically make this with frozen fruit as well and it works wonderfully!

    Didn’t make the roasted blueberries, but the pancakes were pretty good! Pioneer Woman still has our preferred sour cream pancake recipe, but we’d try this one again but with the roasted blueberries.

    Very tasty and easy. Even my sour-cream-averse husband liked these. I needed more compote personally but I have a big sweet tooth.

    These have become another go to pancake recipe in our house. The blueberry topping is divine and the pancakes are so light and fluffy.

    This is a good pancake recipe. Using what I had, I used half sour cream and half Greek yogurt, but would like to try it using only sour cream next time. The blueberries roasted down nicely into an intensely flavored syrup, which I found delicious, although the rest of my family still prefers butter and maple syrup.

    Made it just as the recipe stated and it was voted best pancake recipe ever by my husband and I. It was the perfect amount for just the two of us and I think it was the sour cream that really made this pancake for us. Also love the idea of roasting the blueberries and using that as a topping. I did add some lemon.

    We loved these! I tripled the recipe to feed 7, using 2 cups of sour cream and a cup of ricotta. I followed Lepas suggestion and added lemon juice to the blueberries and the zest to the pancake batter. Excellent!

    We all liked this. My kids loved the blueberries. I think the blueberries might benefit from a bit of lemon zest or something to add a bright note. I subbed 1/2 white whole wheat flour and used buttermilk. The pancakes turned out well; they had a nice texture but the taste wasn't anything special. The roasted fruit topping is what sets this recipe apart.

    Used buttermilk and frozen blueberries.... yum! Will definitely make again. I loved the light texture of these, and with the fruit we didn't need any extra fixin's (syrup, butter, etc.) Also, the amount of blueberries listed in the recipe was happily and easily consumed by two people, so double it if you're making for more people. :)

    I modified these by subbing out 1/2 whole wheat flour, and found that they turned out a little bit on the dry side--I may have needed more liquid to compensate... the flavor was nice, but my 3 year old wasn't a fan, so these probably won't be a repeat for us. The roasted blueberry topping was great, though--I used frozen blueberries and they worked fine (straight from the freezer).

    Made the creme fraiche variation on this. I used roasted purple plums instead, which were fantastic. The recipe made a lot so I kept the plums in the fridge and used them to top yogurt & granola throughout the week. Definitely a great idea and one I'll do again.
