Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes

There's nothing quite like a stack of homemade pancakes, and these Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes 

are no exception! Light, fluffy, and filled with fresh juicy blueberries, these pancakes 

are perfect to wake up to any day of the week!

I'm back on my breakfast kick again, but this time it's all about pancakes! It's no secret I love pancakes, and on the weekends I love making a batch of homemade pancakes {or waffles} for me and the boys. I usually make a double batch of whatever it is, then freeze the extra for the week ahead. There's nothing like having a homemade pancake or waffle during the week before work or school. It totally beats the ones from a box!

These Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes are light, fluffy, and deliciously healthy. Buckwheat flour is a good source of protein and calcium, and it contains a significant amount of fiber. It has a nice nutty flavor which is perfect in these pancakes. I also made these pancakes lactose free.

I'm sensing a little bit of a theme this week. Do you see it, too? I've been talking about the importance of eating breakfast lately, so I thought I'd share another fabulous recipe with you! These Peanut Butter Protein Pancakes are not only delicious, but they are protein packed and will definitely jump start your day. I used Jif Peanut Powder for the first time ever when I made these pancakes, and quickly became obsessed! The powder is great to add to smoothies, in your baked goods, and, of course, in pancakes!

Jif Peanut Powder contains the same amount of  protein as traditional peanut butter, but with less fat and sugar. Another awesome fact: Jif Peanut Powder is made from just one ingredient, fresh roasted peanuts, and has no added sugar or salt! That right there is music to my ears.

Oatmeal Pancakes

Start your day off right with these hearty and healthy Oatmeal Pancakes!

Did you know that National Pancake Week existed? I didn't until now, but it's actually the last week of February! In addition, February is also National Heart Healthy Month and National Hot Breakfast Month. So many good things to celebrate!

The timing is perfect for all of these as the United Dairy Industry of Michigan (UDIM) just happens to be celebrating the combination of oats and your favorite dairy foods with their "We Heart Oats" campaign. Did you know you can get over two and a half times the protein by making your oats with milk instead of water? Check out the infographic below for more fun facts!
