"Up & At 'Em", our theme for this week at I Heart Cooking Clubs (IHCC), it's breakfast time, the most important meal of the day, the one that sets you up and about! It was a public holiday yesterday, the family woke up later than usual, it was a lazy morning, and these Blueberry Pancakes makes a lovely breakfast on such mornings. These are great eaten warm for those who are up and about to start the day, and are just as delicious when eaten later, at room temperature, for those who want to sleep in a little longer!
These pancakes uses the basic ingredients, flour, baking powder, milk, sugar, melted butter and frozen blueberries, but these simple ingredients makes really good pancakes!
The original recipe calls for some icing sugar to be sprinkled over the top before serving with a drizzling of maple syrup. My family had this with some honey drizzled over instead. They have always love pancakes with honey!
I prefer eating the pancakes as it is, it already is very good on its own, with a mug of hot coffee.
These pancakes are just so delicious. They are tender, not-too-sweet, and the sweet blueberries are just bursting with juice. Recipes calls for 3/4 cup of frozen blueberries, but I have used more than that, perhaps double that amount. Family approved! One that I would make again! Yums!Blueberry Pancake

Oh those look positively sinfully delicious...and I'm like you, always tend to just keep adding blueberries way past the point of the recipe's suggestions...why not, right? Your photos are so bad...they make me want to eat the whole stack all in one sitting and not tell anyone I did it...that's bad!! lol Great choice.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of adding the blueberries to the mixture - I have only ever added them after. What a lovely way to start the day.

ReplyDeleteDouble the blueberries--Mmm... I want to come to breakfast at your house! ;-) Such gorgeous, golden pancakes!
ReplyDeleteI love that you doubled the blueberries and served your pancakes with honey in place of syrup! I will have to try honey in place of syrup next time I have pancakes. that is one gorgeous stack of pancakes !
ReplyDeleteBeautiful looking pancakes, Joyce. Funny thing, whenever I go out for breakfast, I nearly always choose pancakes (especially if they're blueberry ones), and yet I rarely think to make them at home. Think I need to give this recipe a try, and I'll definitely be taking your lead and doubling the blueberries :-)
