Instructions
Make Pancakes
- Thaw frozen blueberries in advance or add frozen blueberries to a pot and add a small amount of water in the bottom. Turn flame on low until the blueberries are thawed. Then drain all of the water off of the blueberries.
- If you do not have sprouted oat flour, add 1 ½ cups of organic sprouted oats into a food processor and blend until it is oat flour. Measure out 1 ¼ cups of sprouted oat flour and add into a large bowl.
- Add all remaining dry ingredients into a large bowl and mix well.
- Add all of the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir well. Add the thawed blueberries last and mix. Let sit for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Brush 2 large pans (or a griddle) with coconut oil or grass fed butter. Heat the 2 large pans on low and spoon some pancake batter onto the pans to make pancakes that are approximately 3 ½" in diameter.
- Flip the pancakes after the bottom is cooked to cook the other side.
- After the pancakes are cooked on both sides, optionally add grass fed butter on top of the pancakes while they are hot.
- Keep pancakes warm in a glass or ceramic pan in the oven on a low temperature until ready to serve.
Prepare Berries for Topping
- Wash berries for pancake topping. If using strawberries, then slice thinly.
Optional: Make Homemade Whipped Cream
- Add the entire container of whipping cream and 2-3 TB of maple syrup into a blender and add lid.
- Blend on high for approximately 1 minute until it turns into whipped cream.
Serve Pancakes
- Add optional toppings of berries, homemade whipped cream and maple syrup (if desired) and serve.
