The holiday season is in full swing, and between shopping for gifts, running errands, and finishing up last-minute projects before the end of the year, it’s so easy to get stressed out. Especially at this time of year, I’ll remind myself how important it is to reenergize and force myself to take breaks and relax!
As an athlete, eating healthy has always been an integral part of my lifestyle. I’ll often start my day with a cup of coffee and a bowl of blueberries to get my metabolism kickstarted, or make a blueberry smoothie after a workout. And because blueberries are available all year round, I’ll always have a box of them in my fridge to snack on.
One of my favorite ways to treat myself—especially during the holidays—is to make these blueberry pancakes for breakfast. They’re sweet and delicious, and so relaxing to make.
Try out the recipe below for yourself and let me know what you think!
Blueberry Pancake Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

- 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
- 1 1/4 cup blueberries + extra to put on too after pancakes are complete!

Hi! Quick question that’s totally off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My site looks weird when browsing from my iphone. I’m trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to correct this problem. If you have any suggestions, please share. Thanks!

Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any tips for beginner blog writers? I’d certainly appreciate it.
Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
