Blueberry Pancakes with maple syrup

Happy weekend everyone! I love weekends for many reasons and Im sure most of you will agree that generally it represents time to relax and unwind and if youre lucky to have a lie in. Most of all its about the food. When we have a free weekend at home, we like to cook our own brunch and our favourites are waffles, pancakes or poached eggs on muffins. Easter seems like such a long time ago now but I still remember these pancakes which we had on Easter Monday. J wanted blueberry pancakes so I found a recipe online from Sallys Baking Addiction and it turned out beautifully. It was light, fluffy and full of blueberries. I served it with more fresh blueberries, fresh strawberries and lashings of maple syrup. It made for a really filling brunch and Im pretty sure theres at least one of my five a day in there!

Recipe adapted slightly from Sallys Baking Addiction

250g plain flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
250g low fat natural yoghurt
300ml milk
60ml Clarks Carob fruit syrup
2 eggs
45g melted butter
300g fresh blueberries

In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients - plain flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, ground cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, carob fruit syrup, yoghurt and melted butter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until it forms a smooth batter.
Finally stir in the blueberries.
Heat a frying pan with cooking spray or oil or butter.
Add a ladleful of batter to the hot pan and cook until the edges look dry and there are bubbles in the mixture.
Flip the pancake in one go and cook until it is browned on both sides.
Keep the pancakes warm in a pre-heated oven about 150C until all the pancakes are cooked.
Serve with fresh berries and maple syrup.
