Blueberry Pancakes

I woke up this morning with a hankering for blueberry pancakes!

I make mine a little different. I add 1/2 cup of instant oats to my batter. That way I don't feel so guilty for not having my usual bowl of oatmeal in the morning.

I also add some of our home grown blueberries. I just throw in a big handful or more. I cover my bushes in the summer to keep the birds away, then I pick them and stash them away in the freezer. Don't they look good.



Mix up bisquick, milk, eggs, oats, and blueberries and put into the skillet. I use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to make them all the same size.



We buy two different kinds of syrup. Original for the ones who don't worry about their weight and sugar free for us who worry about our weight. But seriously, I like the sugar free. I guess it's what you get used to. We were out of it a few months ago and I had to use the regular kind, and I didn't like it at all. It was way too sweet!



And besides, if you use the sugar free, you can pour lots and lots of syrup on your pancakes!
And I like pancakes with lots of syrup.


I enjoyed my breakfast this morning, hope you enjoyed yours.

If you would like to try my way, just add blueberries and a little oats to your pancake batter. I think you'll like the result.

  1. They looked so good and I have to admit I would rather have the sugar laden syrup. How nice that you have blueberry bushes.

  2. Janet, I am sure I would enjoy your pancakes but I am back on my diet, after being off two weeks. So, quit tempting me.

  3. I have never tried blueberries in anything but muffins. But I love those muffins. I'll have to get some blueberries and try this. Thanks for the instruction.
    I wonder if blueberries will grow here in this dirt we call blackjack?

  4. Y-u-m-m-y. Those look good. I usually always use blueberries, but from the grocery store freezer. Will try the oats in one, might be good. How and where do we find a blueberry bush That would be nice to have. Do the deer eat them ? Would also like to grow strawberries, do you ?

  7. Jeanne I have grown strawberries before but they are so hard to keep the weeds out of. You can buy blueberry bushes at Wal Mart or anywhere else that sells plants. I haven't had any trouble with deer, only birds.
