Blueberry Pancakes
My family love pancakes. So when my daughter mentioned it was Pancake Day, I had to make pancakes.
These are great, they are spongy and soft and they are made with ingredients I always have in the house.
They are super easy to make.
My kids love them with nutella or a berry jam. The original recipe suggests maple syrup. Have them with whatever you like.
If you take out the blueberries, you have normal pancakes, but my fruit loving family prefer them with blueberries.
I tend to make mine pikelet size, but if you like them large, make them large.
I prefer frying them in vegetable oil, as butter tends to burn.
