Delicious multigrain blueberry pancakes made with whole grain flours, buttermilk and egg with fresh blueberries, great to start a day
In my house full-fledged breakfast happens only on weekends, rest of days, something like slice of whole wheat bread, oatmeal or cornflakes. I make elaborate breakfast on weekends, mostly south Indian dishes; nowadays my princess is in love with pancakes, and she wants pancakes and sauce (maple syrup) for her breakfast.
Previously I had made sweet potato pancakes which she loved, so when she asked for a blueberry pancake, I made this multigrain blueberry pancake.
This great recipe is from the book “A good food day” by Macro Canora. Author Macro is a professional chef who turned a new leaf of cooking healthy ingredients once he developed pre diabetic diagnosis.
The book is really simple with lot of information and nice photography. It starts with personnel story of the author followed by 10 principles of good food day and pantry staples then myth about saturated fat like butter cheese etc.

How to make this multigrain blueberry pancake?
I tried Blueberry and buckwheat buttermilk pan cakes from the book. It is delicious; my hubby told me you need an acquired taste to like it.
Yes it has multigrain flour in it such as buckwheat flour, whole wheat flour and corn flour, instead of frozen blueberries suggested in the recipe I used fresh blueberries.
It has both buttermilk and milk along with eggs. My daughter enjoyed with heavy dose of maple syrup, where her dad eat with little maple syrup.
I think this pancake is really filling one so if you have only 2 adults, then half or ¾th the recipe is enough. Maximum pancakes you can eat are about 2-3.

The pancakes sound so filling and tasty, Swathi! I loved that the recipe calls for whole wheat flour and buckwheat flour, and I believe the tartness in the blueberries can make any recipe so tasteful. I adore blueberries! The book sounds so interesting too, Swathi! Have a good day!
