You know what, sometimes I really don't like writing about food.
It's really hard work to sit here trying to write something about mouth-watering, fluffy, egg free berry pancakes (healthy pancakes might I add) drizzled with maple syrup without running to the kitchen to whip up a batch for afternoon tea.
Yes, I know that I got to eat these prior to now but looking at the photos all I can think about is pancakes.
And berries.
I can't think of what else to say other than telling you how good they were.
These egg free berry pancakes were my pick for The Secret Recipe Club I used to be a part of a few years ago.
I was assigned to Baking and Creating with Avril and what fun I had perusing her blog.
See that's another mean thing about this blogging business - I had to look through a whole stack of mouth-watering recipes and pick just one to make for this post.
I had to choose between bundt cakes and sweet loaves and taco pizza! Maybe that's why I left the club?
My obsession with pancakes won out though.
Also if I'd made a cake I know who would have probably eaten the whole thing and her name starts with C and ends in laire.
At least making pancakes I could share them with my big boy for breakfast.
Yes I shared them I swear.
Instructions
These were seriously easy to make.
You can use whole blueberries but I wanted mixed and took the lazy route of chopping them in the Thermomix.
Then all you have to do is mix everything together and cook them up. I must admit, I had to quadruple check the recipe because I couldn't quite believe that there weren't any eggs in it.
I was quite amazed when they turned out just like their egg-containing counterparts.
Tips
My tip for getting perfect pancakes is to cook a little one on its own first. It's the 'test pancake.'
That way you can work out the right temperature and make sure the batter is the perfect consistency before you use a waste heap of batter cooking 4 at a time.
I also recommend serving in a stack.
I know that's how everyone does it but it really is the best way. Oh and maple syrup must be drizzled from a height never poured from up close.
It just doesn't have the same effect. Enjoy!

Claire, You've made these pancakes look so inviting that even though it is late evening now as I write this, I'm already planning a pancake breakfast. Love your tip about making a mini one first to get the pan temp right - the first one never comes out as good as the subsequent ones.

I'm as obsessed with pancakes as you are C laire. I don't think I would share these :)
