Single-serve blueberry pancakes cooked in a mason jar in the microwave. Layer batter, berries and maple syrup, then cook until puffed.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup blueberries
  • 1 cup prepared pancake batter (homemade or prepared from a mix)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons sugar

Directions

  • Special equipment: 2 wide-mouthed mason jars.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon blueberries into each jar, then 1/4 cup batter on top of each. Add 1 tablespoon maple syrup, followed by another tablespoon of blueberries and another 1/4 cup batter. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon sugar over each top.
  • Microwave one jar at a time, about 2 minutes 40 seconds, until the mixture is fluffy and puffs up over the rim of the jar.

Notes

This is a microwave-cooked jar, not a make-ahead fridge jar. Safety: jars get very hot; use microwave-safe glass.
