Get your day off to a great start with our simple and delicious fruit-flavoured pancakes. These fluffy, thick pancakes make a change from traditional crêpes and can even be served with crispy bacon, if you dare.
I love this one because it makes them nice and thick. They have a lovely flavour and texture. They are also easy to make anytime, as they use pretty standard pantry items. Enjoy them with blueberries (fresh or frozen).
Blueberry pancakes are a wonderful treat when fresh blueberries are in season. But don’t limit your enjoyment of these tender, golden cakes to summer; frozen blueberries make them a year-round treat
As these are thick pancakes, with a thick batter, you need to cook them on medium low heat. Any higher and your outside will cook before your insides are done. Also, the thick batter means you won’t have a ton of bubbles happening (the classic sign that you should flip your pancake), so just take quick peeks at the underside to know when it’s time to flip. Flip when it’s lovely golden underneath. Allow to cook once flipped until cooked through.
