Makes 10 pancakes

- ½ cup all-purpose flour

- ½ cup whole-wheat flour

- 1-½ teaspoons baking powder

- ½ teaspoon baking soda

- ¼ teaspoon salt

- 1 cup buttermilk

- Fresh fruit, fruit spread, or syrup

1. In a large bowl, mix flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt with a wooden spoon (about 10 circles).

2. In a medium bowl, whip together buttermilk, egg, egg white and oil with a wire whisk until light yellow in color (about 30 strokes).

3. Add wet ingredients to dry mixture. Whip with a wire whisk until it is combined (about 20 brisk strokes). It should still be a little bit lumpy. Add blueberries and gently mix them into the batter using a wooden spoon.

4. Spray a large, nonstick skillet or griddle, then heat it to medium-hot. Drop a tiny bit of batter into the frying pan to test for the correct heat; when it sizzles it is ready. Pour ¼ cup batter for each pancake into the frying pan. Cook 3 or 4 pancakes at a time or whatever fits into the pan. When the pancake is all bubbly on top and the edges are starting to brown lightly, carefully flip the pancake using a spatula. Cook 1 or 2 minutes longer.

5. Put the cooked pancakes on an oven-proof plate and place in a warm oven. When removing the plate from the oven, be sure to use a kitchen mitt or potholder.) Cook the remaining pancakes. Serve warm with fruit, fruit spread, or light syrup.
