Preparation
Step 1
Make cranberry-maple syrup: In a blender, pulse cranberries, 1 cup sugar and water until coarsely chopped. Scrape mixture into a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then decrease to low and simmer until reduced by half, 20 minutes. Strain liquid over a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl. Discard solids. Let syrup cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes. Once cool, stir in maple syrup, then set aside.
In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, remaining sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, whisk together 2 cups buttermilk and eggs. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients, stirring until just incorporated. Add 2 tablespoons butter and remaining buttermilk, stirring once or twice until just combined.
Melt 1 tablespoon butter on a griddle or a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once melted, ladle ⅓ cup batter into pan, swirling pan to form a 6-inch round. Cook until surface starts to bubble and bottom is golden brown, about 1½ minutes, then carefully flip and cook 1½ minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to pan as necessary. Serve with cranberry-maple syrup.
