Fresh homemade pancakes are one of my favourite breakfasts and I am currently crushing on these moist and fluffy blueberry zucchini pancakes! Pancakes could not be easier to make! You simply mix all of the ingredients into a batter and cook them in a pan until lightly golden brown. I have added zucchini, lemon zest and blueberries to these pancakes to give them a fresh hit of summers flavours and they are simply divine! The zucchini helps keep the pancakes nice and moist and the blueberries and lemon zest add plenty of flavour! I like to top these blueberry zucchini pancakes with maple syrup and butter making them one really amazing summer breakfast, lunch or dinner!

These look seriously delicious!!! I crave pancakes a lot but don't make them but twice a year because I slather them in maple syrup to give them flavor, so I don't make them very healthy! With lemon zest and blueberries, there would be so much natural flavor it would help cut the calories a bit for sure! Can't wait to try these, thank you! (Plus, look how pretty they are!)

Made these for breakfast this morning and they were incredible! Best pancakes I’ve ever made. Minor tweaks to the recipe:
– browned the 2 Tablespoons of butter before mixing it in
– used Saco buttermilk powder to make buttermilk and subbed it for milk
– added a splash of vanilla extract
– cooked in a mix of canola oil and butter with a sprinkle of maldon sea salt
Bougie quarantine!
