How to Make Paleo Blueberry Pancakes From Scratch
The batter for these paleo blueberry pancakes is made in a mixing bowl and cooked on the stove top. Here are the steps:
First, combine the wet ingredients in a medium-sized mixing bowl. This includes the eggs, avocado oil, maple syrup, vanilla and water. Whisk until smooth.
Next, add in the dry ingredients. This includes the coconut flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk until smooth.
Let the batter sit for 5 minutes to thicken, then fold the blueberries into the batter.
Preheat a frying pan on medium heat and grease with a bit of oil (I used coconut oil).
Then, scoop about ¼ cup of pancake batter from the mixing bowl and pour it onto the preheated frying pan. Cover with a lid and cook until bubbles start to form on top of the pancake.
Lastly, remove the lid to the frying pan, flip the pancakes and continue cooking until done.
Repeat until all pancakes have been cooked. (This recipe will make 7 blueberry pancakes.)
