Flapjacks, hotcakes, griddle cakes, crepes—whatever you call them, pancakes are a treat for breakfast any day of the week. If they’re homemade, even better. Add blueberries, and your morning is made! Rather than relying on a scoop of processed powder from that red cardboard box in your pantry, try this wholesome combination of almond meal, coconut milk, spices and fresh fruit for a paleo-friendly pancake that’s better by any name.
