Because no one likes the bottom of a muffin.
I love anything vanilla blueberry: cakes, loaves, cookies, plus blueberry muffins are hands down my favorite type of muffins EVER. They’re sweet, moist, fluffy and bursting with tarty juice from the blueberries!
Even though it’s November, probably the coldest month of the year so far, I still will find ways to enjoy them, whether in warm oatmeal, mashed in a jam for a PB&J sweet potato sandwich, or of course, in these toasty pancakes! For this recipe, I used the Flapjacked Buttermilk Pancake Mix because it is so convenient, high in protein, high in fiber, made with completely wholesome and nutritious ingredients and absolutely delicious and versatile. You can check out my full review here along with a cinnamony peanut waffle recipe attached to it!
Also, what are your thoughts on how you add in blueberries? I personally prefer to stir them into the batter, but some people tell me I’m wrong and put in the additions after they spoon in some of the batter onto the pan. That just doesn’t do it for me! I find it so much easier to just add them into the batter!
I actually brought this to school with me and topped the pancakes with more fruit and lots of PB2. I’m addicted to this combo!
