Ingredients
  

  • - Blueberries: 1 cup about 150g
  • - Ground almonds or almond meal: 1 cup (240 ml)
  • - Whole wheat flour: 1 cup 120g
  • - Baking powder: 1 tsp 5 ml
  • - Salt: 1/4 tsp 1.25 ml
  • - Eggs: 2 large
  • - Almond milk: 1 cup 240 ml
  • - Maple syrup for sweetness: 2 tbsp (30 ml)
  • - Vanilla extract: 1 tsp 5 ml
  • - Coconut oil or butter for frying: As required

Method
 

  1. Begin by whisking together the whole wheat flour, ground almonds, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. This dry mix forms the foundation for our Blueberry Almond Pancakes.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, adding in the almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Mix until well combined.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring them together until just combined. Remember, a few lumps are perfectly fine!
  4. Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat, adding a little coconut oil or butter.
  6. For each pancake, ladle about 1/4 cup (60 ml) of batter onto the skillet.
  7. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, which should take around 2-3 minutes.
  8. Flip the pancake and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes or until golden brown.
  9. Repeat the process until all the batter is used up.
  10. Serve your Blueberry Almond Pancakes hot with your choice of toppings!

Notes

1. Don't over-mix the batter; it can make the pancakes tough.
2. If the batter seems too thick, add a splash more almond milk to achieve the desired consistency.
3. Frozen blueberries can be used if fresh aren’t available. Just ensure they're thoroughly defrosted and drained.
4. For an extra almond hit, sprinkle some chopped almonds on top before flipping the pancakes.
5. Always keep an eye on the heat. If the pancakes brown too quickly, reduce the heat slightly.
