Dessert can be an issue if you’ve got some gluten free family members or guests. However, I have just solved that problem for you!! Make this PS Seasoning & Spices Buttermilk Blueberry Shortcake and you will be the most loved cook around! This is easy to make, quick to bake, has the brain food of blueberries and looks amazing with a beautiful presentation. And, you’ll get the double whammy of blueberries because the freeze-dried blueberries in the mix plump up so nicely in the shortcake, coupled with the fresh blueberries and the cream. It’s delish!!
PS Seasonings & Spices is new to me as a company. But they’ve been around for 4 generations!! Owned by the Hanni family, based in Wisconsin, they started with mastering the craft of smoking and seasoning sausages and in 1984, formed PS Seasoning and Spices. They have now expanded with other product mixes.
This PS Seasonings & Spices Gluten Free Blueberry Pancake Mix is new and outstanding, and the gluten free part is like icing on the cake! You really can’t tell at all that it’s gluten free. And the mix is loaded with freeze-dried blueberries that make it oh-so-good. Of course you can follow the instructions and make blueberry pancakes, but where they call for milk, I recommend you use an all-natural buttermilk (I like Kate’s Buttermilk) and you will get fluffy, light and thick pancakes.
Here were mine!
And here is the recipe for this wonderful fresh and delicious dessert!
PS SEASONING & SPICES BUTTERMILK BLUEBERRY SHORTCAKE – serves 6
18 oz. fresh blueberries, washed and air dried
¼ cup sugar
2 1/3 cups PS Seasoning & Spices Gluten Free Blueberry Pancake Mix
½ cup buttermilk (I like Kate’s)
3 Tbs. sugar
3 Tbs. unsalted butter, melted
½ pint heavy cream, whipped
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
In large bowl, gently fold and mix the blueberries with 1/4 cup sugar; set aside.
In a medium bowl, stir PS Seasoning & Spices Gluten Free Blueberry Pancake Mix, buttermilk, 3 tablespoons sugar and the butter until a soft dough forms. On ungreased cookie sheet, drop dough by 6 spoonfuls.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
Meanwhile, in small bowl, beat whipping cream and vanilla with a whisk or electric mixer until soft peaks form.
Cut and split shortcakes, spread a large spoonful of heavy cream on the bottom, place a large spoonful of blueberries on top of the cream and top with a little more whipped cream and the other half of the shortcake. The cream acts as the “glue” here to hold it all together.
Serve with LOVE and enjoy!!
