I love this recipe because of how the blueberries cook slightly from the heat of the pan and go all juicy when you bite into them, delicious! Plus it looks so pretty too, that lovely deep purple colour.
This is a great morning breakfast booster as it has fibre, protein, good carbs and some matcha (green tea powder) which will help perk you up but without any jitteriness. Aim for a good quality matcha.

Optional: lemon butter drizzle
Once the pancakes are cooked, slowly melt a generous teaspoon of butter in the pan with about 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice then drizzle this over your pancakes for an added zing.
