Blueberry Pancakes with Warmed Berries
 
 
Yield: 1 serving, 3 medium pancakes
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup fresh berries
  • ½ teaspoon pure maple syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup Birch Benders Protein Pancake Mix
  • ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon golden flaxseed meal
  • 3 tablespoons blueberries
  • ¼ cup nonfat vanilla yogurt
Directions
  1. Heat the fresh berries, maple syrup and cinnamon in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Let cook until berries start to lightly burst, about 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat when done.
  2. While the berries are cooking, prepare the pancakes. In a bowl, lightly mix together the pancake mix, water and flaxseed meal. Make sure to add one tablespoon of the water last to make sure it needs it. The dough should not be runny, but instead thick.
  3. Spray a medium skillet with coconut oil spray and heat over medium-high heat (I put the dial on my gas stove between medium-high and medium). Scoop the batter into the pan to make 3 pancakes, trying to not let them touch. Place a tablespoon of blueberries on top of each pancake. Cook for 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook for 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Top with the vanilla yogurt and the cooked berries.
