Blue Pancakes with Spirulina, Chia, and Blueberries make a delightful and nutritious breakfast, perfect for special occasions with your loved ones. Not only are they visually stunning, but they are also delicious and packed with health benefits.
It’s been a long time since I made pancakes for my blog. Mainly, because I eat them while I am making them, lol. Also, none of the photos I took before I liked, so I didn’t include them in my new blog. However, if you would like to see one of my older recipes I have them saved on Pinterest. These are the WEEKEND PANCAKES with Homemade Vegan Nutella if you like to take a peek.
As you can see, this recipe is quite different, especially because these are made with Blue Spirulina. And this is not only to make these Blue Pancakes pretty but also very healthy. If you follow the link, you can find out more about the health benefits. You can also order from Unicorn Superfoods. That is where I order my spirulina, but you can also order from Amazon since that way is much faster.
The other product I would like to mention is the Sprouted High Protein Flour, which I have tried for the first time. Actually my daughter bought it and gave it to me. Then, I discovered on Amazon the brand, Anita’s Organic Mill and their great selection of products. Maybe you could even try the Sprouted Whole Wheat Pancake & Waffle if you like. I am definitely going to get it myself.
I hope you find this information interesting and these Blue Pancakes appealing. Thank you for visiting and I would love to hear your questions or suggestions.
