CL Comments: Blueberries, either fresh or frozen, give ordinary pancakes a big flavor boost, not to mention a healthy dose of antioxidants.
Amy's Comments: These were easy to make and WOW were they GOOD!! My guests gobbled them up. I used frozen blueberries bc the fresh were too $$. A definite keeper!
