Ingredients

1 cup maple syrup
1 cup dried sour cherries, chopped
1 egg
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons melted butter, cooled
1/2 cup chopped dried sour cherries

Steps:

To make the syrup, bring the maple syrup to a boil in a medium-size saucepan. Immediately remove from the heat and stir in the chopped cherries. Let stand at least 8 hours or overnight in the refrigerator. Strain.
To make the pancakes, whisk together the egg and buttermilk in a medium-size mixing bowl. Sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda, and combine with egg mixture. Stir in the melted butter and the cherries.
Spoon the batter onto a hot griddle and cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with remaining batter. Warm the cherry syrup and place in a small pitcher. Divide the pancakes among 4 plates and serve immediately, with the cherry syrup on the side.
