Whole Wheat Blueberry Pancakes - Monday Yumday

Maddy, her best buddy Boo and I had so much fun making breakfast for lunch today. the girls love pour the ingredients into the bowl and stirring everything together and I love how excited they get about each new ingredient always asking to smell or taste everything.

My mom used to make small pancakes for us when we were little and I loved it, actually I still do. We usually eat our pancakes with yogurt instead of syrup in the Evolving household and today was no different. Maddy ate five of these yummy pancakes along with almost a cup of yogurt, so I think I'll take that as a thumbs up. I'm not sure I want to even admit to myself, let alone everyone reading this, how many of these I ate.

This recipe makes 18-20 3 inch pancakes. If 18-20 pancakes is more than you need the extras freeze well and can be popped in the toaster until warm for a quick breakfast, lunch, dinner or snack.


Whole Wheat Blueberry Pancakes

1 cup milk
1 egg
4 tablespoons apple sauce
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cup blueberries

Mix milk, egg, and apple sauce until well blended. In separate bowl mix flour, salt, and baking powder in medium bowl and then add to the milk mixture stirring until thoroughly mixed. Stir blueberries into batter.

Spray pan with cooking spray and warm to medium heat. Scoop batter into warm pan by using 1/8 cup measuring cup. Cook until pancakes start to puff up and firm around the edges then flip and finishing cooking the other side.

These sound great and healthy! I just need to get some whole wheat flour.

These do sound great. We really like blueberries waffles in our house. Did you have trouble finding blueberries affordably at this time of year?

Blueberries, actually all berries, can be really expensive this time of year but luckily I bought and froze a gazillion pounds of blueberries when they were affordable and in season so we have been using our stockpile lately.

In other words frozen or fresh berries work fine in this recipe.

Those sound good! We always do blueberry pancakes on Sundays. These are a bit healthier so it sounds like a great idea! I am amazed by how many pancakes a 2 year old can put away!

These sound great! I have an easy whole wheat recipe I use. 1/4 cup w.w. flour 1/4 water, teaspoon baking soda, stir and cook as usual pancakes (makes 3 small cakes). They are so delicious and easy too! I am going to try your recipe and compare :)
