Easy Pancake Variations
Want to add different flavors to your pancakes? No problem!
In these pancakes, I have added fresh blueberries and they come out PERFECT. All you need to do is add a few blueberries to each pancake before flipping them in the pan. I also topped this stack of pancakes with my homemade blueberry jam, it is delicious!
If you prefer to use other fruit in your pancakes, they will come out just as good. Make sure to not add any pieces of fruit that are super big or chunky so that they pancakes can flip easily. Frozen fruit can also be used and will yield the same result.
If desired, you can play around with different flavors or extracts as well!
