Frequently asked questions
You can certainly use frozen blueberries for your pancakes if you don’t have fresh blueberries handy. Simply replace the fresh with the frozen and follow the same instructions. You do not need to thaw the blueberries.
Place blueberry pancakes in an airtight container or a high-grade freezer bag before storing them in the freezer to prevent freezer burns.
Yes. Baking powder is often used in cakes and baking to act as a raising agent along with baking soda. It acts the same way with pancakes. Adding a bit of baking powder will result in a light and fluffy pancake.

Notes
- use frozen blueberries if that’s all you have on hand.
- Instead of Greek yogurt, you can use plain yogurt.
- For a vegan option, use plant-based yogurt, and 2 tablespoons of ground flax seed. Mix the flax seeds first with about 1/4 cup of cold water.
- If you do not have rolled oats, use quick oats.
- Make sure the bananas are ripe so it comes out sweet enough.

I used oat flower and added 3 tbs of maple syrup and these were the best pancakes iโve ever made.
Thanks for the feedback and tip
Can you substitute regular milk for the almond milk?
Yes you can
Hi! They look great! Is there a substitute for Greek yogurt?
Plain works
Made these today – delicious, filling and so easy to make! I just ate them as they were and they were sweet enough without syrup. Thanks for the recipe!
Thanks for the feedback. Glad you liked it
These look amazing!! Canโt wait to try them… question though, is the macros listed for 2 servings or just one serving? Cal 327 carbs 49g protein 16g etc…. itโs lists serves 2 but I donโt see a specification if it is per serving?
Thank you
Thanks. So depending on the size of the pancakes you make. it should make 6-8. If you make 6 pancakes with the batter then the serving size would be 3 pancakes
I was looking for a healthy blueberry pancake. These are amazing!
Perfect. Glad you loved them
So yummy ! Thanks ! I really recommend it ! Itโs healthy and delicious !
So glad you loved it!
Hi Rena,
Thanks for sharing the recipe! It sounds and looks delicious and I can’t wait to try it out. One quick question. Is there an alternative for eggs in the recipe? I’m vegetarian but I don’t eat eggs. Looking forward to hearing from you!
Hi. You can use egg substitute
I love the recipes and the nutritional value chart! But Iโm not sure what the serving size is for the number of calories…
Hi Julia
the recipe should make about 6 medium-sized pancakes. The values would be for half of that. It serves 2
These pancakes are amazing … very easy to make and extremely tasty. This recipe does not break the calorie bank and they were eep you full for hours. I always have frozen bananas and blueberries in my freezer so an easy go to meal. I find frozen bananas thawed worked better. The blueberries I only partially thawed and the ime on the griddle warmed them the rest of the way. I make these in my smoothie cup blender which means easy clean up. I have made these 3 times now. My husband keeps asking for them … this is the guy that I cannot get him to eat yogurt!!! This recipe could easily be halved for a single portion of pancakes.
I love your tips Bonnie. So glad your husband likes it as well. Yay!
How long does the batter keep?
