Our creative, from scratch, breakfast includes house specialties as "Eggs Golden Dreams" and "Dual Mountain French Toast" prepared with our house-made wholewheat sunflowerseed bread, served with home-made jams/syrups such as peach-pinapple or our signature hand-picked Pemberton strawberry! Prepared on the handsome "Elmira" stove in the ambiance of our new Merit kitchen with cloth napkins and classical music - breakfast is worth getting up for!
Elmira Country Kitchen
Banana-Poppyseed Pancakes
These hearty pancakes have been served to our skiers since we opened in 1987. I recently added in the poppyseeds for a new twist and they are a great hit!
- Ingredients:
- 3 cups w.w. flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 bananas
- 1/4 cup poppyseeds
Combine the dry ingredients (even the night before to save time!) except poppyseeds. Combine eggs, milk, and vanilla in blender and blend. Quarter bananas lengthwise and then chop into pieces, add these and poppyseeds to the dry ingredients. Fold in wet ingredients to form an even batter. Note: batter consistency will vary, wetter will spread more on griddle and thicker will stay more compact.
I fry about 3 Tablespoons of batter on a non-stick electric griddle, turning once. Be creative on the size and the extras that you have on hand. (chocolate chips, toasted almonds, coconut, sunflower seeds, raisins etc.)
Serve sprinkled with powdered sugar and a generous slathering of flavored yogurt! My kids love to dip the pancakes into the yogurt. Garnish with fresh or frozen strawberries and top with toasted almonds. Enjoy!
Western Mountain Blueberry Custard
The soft, warm texture of the custard is something gentle for the waking tummy and tongue.
- Ingredients:
- 8 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cups flour
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2-1/2 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 Tablespoon butter
- dash of nutmeg & powdered sugar
Melt 3 Tablespoons of butter in a large baking dish or 9 x 13 pan. Blend all ingredients, except blueberries, in blender. Pour into preheated baking dish of melted butter and sprinkle with blueberries. Bake at 425 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes until puffed and golden.
Drizzle with hot jam or maple syrup. Sprinkle with nutmeg and powdered sugar. In the summer, I garnish with fresh raspberries and mint from the garden! This recipe takes only minutes to prepare, great for desert too!
Serves: 6 to 8
Lemon-Coconut Squares

Makes: About 54 squares. Prep. time: 15 minutes. Baking time: 30 to 35 minutes.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
Simplify your baking with these fast and easy chocolate chip bars instead of cookies. For variations, use white chocolate, raspberry, or peanut butter-flavored chips. These freeze very well!

Smoke Salmon Strata with Dill and Cream Cheese
A west-coast favorite at our B&B! This elegant strata is the perfect make-ahead brunch dish, so you can enjoy your guests instead of being busy in the kitchen.
- Ingredients:
- 6 slices thick bread (I use bread made in the bread machine)
- 5 ounces smoked salmon
- 1 cup red or green onion, chopped
- 1/4 pound cream cheese
- 4 cups thick bread cubes
- 6 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 2 Tablespoons fresh dill
- Salt and pepper
Arrange bread slices in a 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Crumple or place smoked salmon in a single layer over bread. Distribute chopped onion over salmon. Dot with cream cheese cubes. Top with bread cubes.
In blender, whisk together eggs, milk, dill, and salt and pepper. Pour over strata, moistening all bread cubes. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. Bake in a 350-degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until puffy and golden. Serve immediately.
