[RECIPE] Spiced Cherry Sauce over Oat Pancakes

Huh! This is actually good.

Oat pancakes

Blend dry ingredients together.

1/2 c. Flour
1/2 c. Oat flour
1/4 c. Buttermilk powder
1 tsp. Baking powder
1/2 tsp. Baking soda
Pinch of salt

Date water

in a small sauce pan, boil 5 medjool dates with one cup water til the skins fall off. Take out all but two dates, and blend the dates and water til smooth. (note: you only really need two dates...Uh, I wanted to eat them after boiling, so I wasn't even planning on making the rest, heh. That just happened as I really wanted to use the water in something).

(Substitute the date water with 1 Tbls. sugar and 1 c. water if you don't want to use dates)

mix well date water, two tablespoons melted butter, and one egg into the dry ingredients.

cover and let sit for 15 to 30 minutes.

make pancake.

Spiced Cherry Sauce

(unfortunattly, no real recipe, but I bet the measurements will be close enough).

in a sauce pan, mix and heat

1 c. Cherries
2 Tbls. Water (add half a teaspoon at a time if you need more water)
2 Tbls. Sugar (add 1/4 cup or more if you want it sweeter).
Pinch of salt
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
Pinch of ground clove

Cook over medium low heat til the cherries fall apart and the sauce thickens.

For the cherries, I used Great Value frozen cherry medley.

i did the dumb thing of trying to separate the skins from the pulp...Tlagwv osdi vsgi yigesvna (Cherokee: That was not that great). It took about three times as long to Thicken. Pshew! Also, was completely unnecessary as the mash tastes just as good as the sauce, Meh, was curious, and that curiosity was...erm...sort of satisfied. Heh!
