Pancakes for Claire & Pop Chips give-a-way
2011
Pretty much every Sunday, we make pancakes for breakfast. It’s become kind of a tradition. Most times we make chocolate chip pancakes, peanut chip pancakes, banana pancakes or I’ve even made cinnamon chip pancakes.
But lucky me, when I came back from lunch at work yesterday, there was a bag waiting for me on my desk. I was hoping it was what I was thinking it was…BLUEBERRIES!
Every summer my friend Kathy gives me blueberries from a blueberry farm near her summer home. They are juicy, sweet and I am so lucky to be a recipient of these beauties!
Since it’s still been so hot out and I don’t want to turn my oven on, I thought I would make pancakes during the week as a special treat.
Even though we’ve made pancakes so many times, my daughter Claire always gets the recipe out. She is 9, and I think this piece of paper is about 3 years old.
When you open up the paper, you see this:
Can you see on the right where she wrote “vanilla flavor” and “Nestle of chocolate”? Isn’t that so cute.
Claire’s pancake recipe:
2 cups all purpose flour
2.5 tsp. baking powder
3 TB. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1.5 cups fat free milk (I have made this with water if I’m out of milk and it still works!)
2 TB. melted butter
*add 1 cup fresh blueberries
Add the dry ingredients, then the wet and stir until combined. Add blueberries and stir.
In a skillet coated with cooking spray, using a 1/4 cup measure place batter in the skillet. wait a few minutes, then turn and cook another few minutes.
I took a few to work and I’m glad I only took two because I would have gone back for more!
What is your favorite thing to make with fresh blueberries??
Now on to the give a way. I wonder if my friends at Pop Chips knew it was my 800th post yesterday because they sent me coupons for SIX of my readers to get a free bag of Pop Chips!

what I use blueberries for most would be smoothies. what I like them best in? breads and muffins… and pancakes. these look fantastic.

Those pancakes look great – you should laminate that recipe…it’s precious.
I love fresh blueberries and my favorite way to eat them is with Greek yogurt and some granola. Dang. Now I’m going to have to go hunt some down!
Pop Chips are the bomb.

My daughter and husband just eats blueberries by the handful as if it were popcorn. If there are any leftover, they go into pancakes or muffins.
Congrats on 800 posts!!!

Can you believe I have never had popchips?
I am a blueberry fiend! My husband calls me a fruit Hoover because I eat so much.
I picked 5 pounds of blueberries and I have done all sorts of things with them, but eating them straight up is my very favorite.

I don’t actually like blueberries IN things like pancakes or muffins, but I love them plain or with yogurt & flax!
Yum, I love pancakes AND popchips!

Popchips are amazing! I keep begging my local retailers to carry them
That recipe is going to make a wonderful heirloom
I LOVE making blueberry muffins and eating them warm out of the oven.
The pancakes really look delicious. I love popchips a lot. I really love the barbecue flavor. I like eating it while watching TV. It’s a very delicious snack!
I agree with Roz that your daughter’s hand written recipe is a treasure. You should keep those. It’s very cute!

I’ve never even heard of pop chips, but I’d sure like to try them
Just found your site from Skinny Kitchen..just in time for a Giveaway too
Those pancakes look yummy and my niece will get a kick out of the fact that another kid “was part of the recipe!” Too cute!!!
Pop chips, you say? I love those things! They are the perfect afternoon crunch! My whole office enjoys them so we like to share!
I wish I had a magical fairy (or friend
) giving me blueberries every year, because those pancakes look amazing. My blueberry cookies probably won’t even come close to your pancakes.
