Oven Baked Blueberry Pancake and Home Fries

A few days ago, my friend Carol and I had a wonderful breakfast at LaPorts...............I had blueberry pancakes, she had eggs and bacon and we shared an order of home fries.  My meal was delicious and I decided to always order blueberry pancakes and home fries when I go to LaPorts, whatever time of day it is.

Tonight  I attempted to replicate the home fries, and mine turned out good, but not as good as LaPorts.  I used both bacon grease and butter to fry the potatoes, but they just were not as good as LaPotts.
I had some frozen blueberries so I located my recipe for a large baked pancake and added some sour cream to make the oven pancake. I have decided to NEVER make pancakes on top of the stove again. Its too easy to do one large pancake in the oven. 
One cup of bisquick
one egg
a half cup of milk
1 tablespoon of sugar and also of oil
dash vanilla
few tablespoons of sour cream
blueberries or other fruit cut up small
425 degrees in greased pan for 14 to 16 minutes
I think its the sour cream that gives it the smooth, pancake like texture.
It was outstanding!    I served the homefries and pancake with some bacon and canned pears.
