Breakfast
Written By Molly Messier

When it comes to breakfast, pancakes are a classic. But have you ever thought about what goes into most restaurant or boxed pancake mixes? Many are made with refined flours, processed sugars, and unhealthy fats like shortening. Not exactly the ideal way to fuel your day!

That’s why we’ve created a delicious and nutritious plant-based alternative: Natural Blueberry Pancakes. This recipe is packed with wholesome ingredients like whole oats, fresh fruits, and natural sweeteners. Not only do these pancakes taste amazing, but they’re also full of nutrients that support a healthy lifestyle.

INGREDIENTS

1 medium banana

1 cup nut milk

1 cup oats

1 tsp vanilla

1 cup blueberries

2 Tbsp natural maple syrup

DIRECTIONS

1. Simmer ½ cup blueberries on low-medium until starting to release juice. Add maple syrup, cook until syrupy and blueberries are broken down. Alternatively, you can blend the blueberries and syrup without cooking.

2. In a blender puree the banana, milk, oats, and vanilla into a batter

3. Fold in ½ cup blueberries, and pour out ¼ cup portions into a preheated non-stick pan

4. Flip when edges start to bubble, around 2-4 minutes per side.

5. Serve with homemade blueberry syrup

Why Choose Natural Ingredients?

Choosing natural, whole ingredients is one of the easiest ways to eat healthier without sacrificing flavor. Here’s why the ingredients in our Natural Blueberry Pancakes stand out:

  • Whole Oats: Unlike refined flours, oats are loaded with fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They provide a more satisfying and longer-lasting energy boost, helping you stay full until lunch.

  • Fresh Blueberries: Bursting with antioxidants and vitamins, blueberries add a sweet, juicy pop to every bite. They also bring a beautiful color and natural sweetness to the pancakes, reducing the need for added sugar.

  • Natural Sweeteners: Instead of relying on processed sugars, we use natural sweeteners like agave or maple syrup. Not only do they taste delicious, but they also provide minerals and antioxidants.
