Healthy Blueberry Pancakes with Blueberry Maple Syrup


Serves 3-5

Pancake Ingredients

3/4 cup whole wheat flour
2 tbsp ground flax seeds
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 cups greek yogurt
1/4 cup blueberries
4 eggs(preferably free-range), whites separated from yolks
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp coconut oil for cooking(in place of butter)

Directions

Heat oven to warm(approx 200 degrees).

Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl and stir to combine.  Add yolks, yogurt and 1/4 cup of blueberries.

In a separate bowl whisk egg whites until frothy and stiff(use an immersion blender if you have one).  Fold egg whites into the mixture.  

Stir just enough to combine but don't over-mix.

Heat a pan with coconut oil over medium heat. When pan is hot add about 2 tbsp of pancake batter for each pancake.  Flip when bubbles appear on the top.  Cook in batches keeping finished pancakes in a warm oven until all of them are ready.

Serve with blueberry maple syrup.
