Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Mix dry ingredients together in a medium-size bowl. In a separate bowl, beat eggs with 2½ cups milk and the melted butter.

  2. Step 2

    Add wet mixture to dry ingredients and mix gently with a wooden spoon. Add more milk if mixture is too thick. Gently fold in blueberries.

  3. Step 3

    Heat a griddle, adding a small pat of butter. Ladle batter onto hot griddle and place three or four slices of banana on each pancake. Cook until tops are dimpled with tiny bubbles, then flip and finish cooking for a minute longer. Serve with butter and maple syrup.

Healthy and delicious! This is my favorite pancake recipe because the pancakes always come out well. Test a tablespoon of batter on your griddle to make sure that the dry to liquid ingredients ratio is just right. Add a bit more milk or flour if needed. You can add walnuts instead of the bananas.

My family gives them big thumbs up! I used frozen wild blueberries and they worked great.

I made this gluten free replacing the whole wheat flour with half gluten free oat flour and half corn meal. Unfortunately I did not have blueberries but could tell they would be a nice addition. I sliced a banana very thin and then chopped it and stirred it into the batter. The bananas cooked in with the batter very nicely. This makes light and tasty pancakes.

This recipe requires a little more effort but it is absolutely worth it. Kids ate them up, wife said they were the best she’s had.
