Whole Wheat Corn Pancakes

I originally found a similar recipe on Smitten Kitchen. Her blog is pretty fun with beautiful pictures!
A few tweaks and it was more my flavor.

Whole Wheat Corn Pancakes

2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cup corn (I used frozen, thawed in the microwave)
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda

Whisk cornmeal, whole wheat flour together. Add buttermilk and stir until combined. Let it soak in the fridge overnight or for at least eight hours.

When you are ready to make the pancakes,
Saute corn with butter in your cooking skillet till lightly browned.
Beat eggs. Add vanilla, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
Add to the soaked mixture and stir until combined. The baking soda will cause the batter to bubble a little bit. Toss in the corn, stir, then ladle pancakes onto
pre-heated skillet.
Cook on both sides till evenly browned.
Serve with warmed real maple syrup and blueberries. Enjoy!
