1/4 cup lemon juice

In a
stainless steel pot combine the orange and lemon juice and boil for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and
add the maple syrup and brown sugar. Stir until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and whisk in the
butter.Cool slightly and add the sliced bananas. Keep warm but do not boil again.*

*Cook's Note: The butter will separate if the compote is boiled and result in a grainy
texture. Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar

21/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, plus some for frying
1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen

Serving suggestions: whipped cream and maple syrup In a large bowl sift together the flour, sugar,
baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Beat the eggs with the buttermilk and melted butter. Combine the dry and the wet ingredients into a lumpy
batter, being careful not to over mix, see Cook's Note*.

Heat some butter in a skillet over medium heat. Spoon 1/3 cup of batter into the skillet and sprinkle the top
with some of the blueberries. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.

Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and maple syrup.

*Cook's Note: Over mixed batter will result in flat, heavy pancakes.
