A classic pancake can’t be beat for breakfast or brunch! This puts a fun twist on classic pancakes to create vanilla pancakes with blueberries: a dish that is out of this world delicious!
Have you noticed that so many things these days seem to be some crazy concoction of flavors? I was out the other day and saw strawberry caramel chocolate pretzel flavored ice cream. Now, I love all of the flavors sure and do enjoy some flavors mixed together {salted caramel or strawberry lemonade anyone?}. But, sometimes I feel like more traditional flavors like vanilla get a bad rap. They get labeled as boring or plain. Well, I’m going to #TakeBackVanilla and it starts with these delicious vanilla pancakes and blueberries.
Vanilla has such a complex flavors. If you’ve ever smelled a fresh vanilla bean, the aroma is incredible. There is certainly a reason why those little beans are so crazy expensive!
Vanilla doesn’t have a strong, overpowering flavor but it is subtle and classic which makes it the perfect compliment to things like coffee and the perfect thing for adding into recipes. I love to cook so my vanilla moments often come when I making things like classic dishes that have become family favorites!
Weekends are typically pancake days in our house and, thanks to my mom’s blueberries bushes, we always have a ton of blueberries in the house. So, this past weekend, I decided to make vanilla pancakes with blueberry compote.
These pancakes were so good and will be a weekend staple in our house for sure! I usually pair mine with a cup of iced coffee or juice.
