In our home a weekend Breakfast is always an opportunity to gather around in the kitchen. So this is our easy to make Fluffy Blueberry Pancakes. It is a family favorite recipe.
Every Sunday we get together to make a breakfast special. Sometimes we make fluffy pancakes, warm Raisin Cinnamon Sugar Waffles, French Toast coated in honey or Sweet Bread Pudding. My son never gets bored making them and stays in the kitchen until they are done. These fluffy blueberry pancakes are always a fun treat, cooked like a regular pancake but in this recipe, the batter involves a meringue.
We add some fresh seasonal berries and top it with sliced bananas. We always make from scratch and drink a super amazing smoothie, that goes so well with morning pancakes. After eating this breakfast, we are the must amazing parents ever.
We call these family recipe, Pancakes a “La Mauro”, you can serve them with maple syrup, warm honey or as we enjoy eating them, plain cinnamon and sugar.
Just a reminder, use a flour sifter or a fine strainer to sift the flour into the batter, otherwise it will make it too heavy. As for the meringue, use room temperature egg whites, it will make them more stable. In this case, separate the yolk from the egg whites while they are still chilled and then let the egg whites sit for about 15 minutes before whisking them.
I would totally recommend a non-stick skillet to successfully make this recipe, it’s wonderful to bake in!
