Pancakes are one of my favorite easy breakfast recipes.  These Lemon Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce are light, refreshing and bursting with flavor!

Easy Breakfast Recipes: Lemon Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce ~ www.itisakeeper.com

A while back, I was visiting Baltimore, MD and had these pancakes for breakfast at the hotel restaurant.  All day long, I couldn’t stop thinking about them.  They were bursting with lemon flavor and topped with this incredible fresh blueberry sauce.

I thought I had died and gone to heaven.  When I got home, I knew I had to make them.

I used my great-grandmother’s pancake recipe as the base.  You can use whichever recipe you like best – or use a pancake mix.  I won’t judge.

In my opinion, the blueberry sauce is the best part about this recipe!  You can use it on just about anything, such as:

  • Pancakes (of course!)
  • Ice cream
  • Angel food cake or pound cake
  • Trifles
  • French toast
  • Waffles
  • Oatmeal
  • Short cakes

I could go on and on!

What would you use this blueberry sauce on? Leave me a comment below!

    Oh my – that does look quite heavenly! I love my pancakes with good old maple syrup but I might have to make an exception and give this blueberry sauce a try.

    I did the same thing at one of my breakfast outings. I loved the Lemon Pancakes they served and had to make them. I think blueberries goes great with lemon.
