Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (125 g) flour
  • 1 tsp (1 tsp) baking powder
  • 2 tbsp (2 tbsp) sugar
  • 1 pinch (1 pinch) salt
  • 2 tsp (2 tsp) ground flaxseed
  • 4 tsp (4 tsp) oil vegetable or mild olive oil
  • 1 tsp (1 tsp) vinegar apple cider or white wine
  • 1 cup (240 ml) water or plant milk
  • 1 cup (150 g) wild blueberries
  • cooking oil
  • sugar to sprinkle

Instructions

For the batter

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and flaxseed.
  • Add the oil, water and vinegar, and mix quickly into a smooth batter.
  • Wash the berries very well. This is particularly important when picking wild blueberries
  • Stir the berries into the batter

To cook the pancakes

  • On medium-high heat, heat a small bit of oil in your frying pan, griddle or skillet. To avoid the pancakes sticking, wait patiently until the pan is hot :)
  • Pour large spoonfuls of batter into your pan and continue to cook on mediuim high heat.
  • Turn the pancakes over when bubbles have formed on the surface and begin to pop.
  • Cook for 1-2 more minutes before taking pancakes out of the pan.
  • Continue until you have used all the batter, adding a bit more oil to the pan each time you cook a new batch.

To serve

  • Paul loves to sprinkle more sugar on top of the pancake before eating. So Austrian! Feel free to try maple or agave syrup instead!
  • Add some fresh berries onto your plate. The combination of cooked and uncooked berries creates an even deeper field of taste. And it looks just delish… Mmmh!

Notes

You can also make these vegan pancakes with cultivated blueberries, blackberries and other kinds of wild foraged berries. Or cook them plain and enjoy with some homemade jam or fruit compote. So many yummy ways to eat pancakes! I also really like them with melted dark chocolate and peanut butter.
If you are going camping, you can mix the dry ingredients up in advance for even more convenience!
