• 3/4 cup (90g) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
• 2 tablespoons (25g) granulated sugar
• 3/4 teaspoon table salt

• 3 tablespoons (43g) melted butter or 3 tablespoons (37g) vegetable oil

Instructions

1. To make the sauce: Weigh your masa harina; or measure it by gently spooning into a cup, then sweeping off any excess. In a small bowl, stir together the masa harina and water., In a medium saucepan, combine the masa mixture with the remaining sauce ingredients. Bring to a boil over medium heat., Simmer the sauce for 2 to 3 minutes, until thickened. Remove from the heat and set aside until ready to serve., To make the pancakes: Weigh your flours; or measure by gently spooning into a cup, then sweeping off any excess. In a large bowl, whisk together the masa harina, flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder., In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter or oil., Gently mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until fairly smooth; some small lumps are OK., Let the batter rest, uncovered, for 10 minutes; it will thicken., Heat a heavy frying pan over medium heat or set an electric griddle to 325°F. Lightly grease the pan or griddle; it’s ready when a drop of water skitters across the surface, evaporating immediately., Drop 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the heated surface; a muffin scoop works well here. Use a spoon or offset spatula to gently spread the batter out a little bit., Cook the pancakes until their tops are bubbly and the edges are set, about 2 minutes. Flip them over and cook the other side until brown, another 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Turn over only once., Serve hot pancakes immediately, topped with blueberry sauce., Store any leftover pancakes, well wrapped, in the refrigerator for several days; freeze for longer storage.
