Healthy 6 Ingredient Blueberry Pancakes

        When I found out I was pregnant with my now 17 month old son Matteo, I decided I was going to be dedicated in raising him to eat mainly organic, low processed, healthy foods as much as I am able to.  In a world that is full of fast food, dye colored treats and sugar loaded parties, it can be tough, but I truly believe that if kids are taught as early as possible to eat healthy foods and junk is not an option, then they will make better decisions in their years ahead.  We recently attended a party and when Matteo was given a bite of cake, he turned his head and reached for the bowl of fruit that was on the table instead.  That was truly a proud mom moment for me! 
        Below is a recipe I came up with for a healthy pancake with only 6 ingredients and none being oils or added sugars! Matteo loves these every morning and while I switch up flavors at times and put pumpkin or apple sauce in the batter, blueberry pancakes seem to be his favorite!  These pancakes are sweet enough from the ripe banana and sweet blueberries that no syrup on top is necessary! Less sugar the better, especially for breakfast! Matteo eats these just as they are with some extra blueberries or raspberries on the side of course!

Ingredients:

* 1/3 cup of Organic Quick Oats

* 2 TBSP of Organic Buckwheat Flour

* 1 Ripe Medium Sized Organic Banana

* 2 organic Eggs

* 1/4 Cup of Organic Blueberries

* Cinnamon as preferred 

Procedure:

* Heat up a non stick frying pan on medium heat and lightly rub some organic butter on the bottom.

*In a mini food processor or blender, add the oats, buckwheat flour, eggs, banana, and cinnamon and blend together until the banana show no lumps.

* Add the blueberries and blend again for a few seconds

* pour batter into the heated frying pan and cook like you would any other pancake.  

I always make one at first and throw it out and that lets me know the pan is ready to make the rest.  You can make these any size you like.  I like to make them about the size of a silver dollar for Matteo.
