Frozen berries are often more affordable and just as nutritious.

Slice your polenta in 1/4 inch-1/2 inch rounds.

Heat a skillet over medium heat, once hot add a pat of butter.

Add half the polenta rounds (or however many can fit in one layer), cook for 2 minutes per side or until lightly golden and crisp on the edges.

Remove from the pan, place on a plate. Repeat with the remaining polenta.

To serve, divide the hot polenta pancakes among plates.

Add some fresh fruit to each plate.

Sprinkle the pancakes with powdered sugar and a generous amount of maple syrup.

Add a pat (or two) of softened butter and watch it melt all over those pancakes.

Eat. Right. Away.
