Get crazy with your favourite berries and take advantage of throwing in a ton of fruits in this nutritious and fun breakfast this morning! Forget the traditional unhealthy pancakes, these are jam-packed with antioxidants and they taste amazing!

What’s Great about Berry Explosion Pancakes?

I've included blueberries in the pancake batter but feel free to replace blueberries with any other kind of berry you want. I've topped them off with all other berries I had on me and some banana and maple syrup for additional sweetness. I'm sure you'll love the combination of all the berries together and some extra sweetness if you choose to add it. These berry explosion pancakes are guaranteed to satisfy your sweet tooth!

What’s in These Berry Explosion Pancakes?

We’re using plenty of fresh and frozen fruits in these pancakes, but don’t let the amount of goodness here intimidate you! These pancakes are called “berry explosion” for a reason - these pancakes are just going to burst with berries! It’s highly likely you have all the ingredients for these pancakes in your kitchen right now except perhaps the assortment of berries. Even if you don’t have all the berries, you shouldn’t let that stop you from making these pancakes! If you have some, go use whatever you have and I’m sure they’ll be just as delicious!

These berry explosion pancakes include:

  • All purpose flour

  • Whole wheat flour

  • Sugar

  • Baking soda

  • Baking powder

  • Cinnamon

  • Egg

  • Milk

  • A berry blend

  • Bananas

  • Maple syrup

Can You Use Frozen Berries?

For sure! I definitely did in this recipe. I actually find that frozen berries are fun to use in cooking because the colours bleed onto the pancake and you get an even more colourful stack! If you actually don’t want the colours to transfer onto your pancakes, then I recommend using fresh berries. Just be mindful that a 4-berry blend can be more budget-friendly, but if you already have your favourite fresh berries on hand, then use whatever you’d like! If you are using frozen berries, make sure you thaw them beforehand. You can soak your berries in warm water. Before adding them in your batter or on top, be sure to pat the berries dry.

How to Make the Berry Explosion Pancakes

These pancakes are one of my easiest pancake recipes! These pancakes start out as simple blueberry (or your favourite berry) pancake. Make the batter by first combining the dry ingredients in one bowl and the wet ingredients in another. Then, combine the two mixtures and your batter is ready.

Heat a skillet on medium-low, and be sure to have your oven preheating at 200 F. We need the oven because we’ll be transferring the cooked pancakes into the oven to keep them warm.

Add butter or oil to the skillet. When the skillet is hot, use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop out your pancake batter. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until you see bubbles form. Then, using a flat spatula, flip the pancake and cook for another minute or so. Once the pancake has cooked on both sides, transfer the pancake to the oven, and repeat for the remaining batter.

Then, top your pancakes with a ton of berries and bananas for more fruit! For some more sweetness, drizzle on some maple syrup. That’s it!

So don't wait any longer and gather up your favourite berries, fresh or frozen. Prepare some fluffy pancakes and enjoy this wonderful breakfast recipe today! Enjoy!
