Blueberry Corn Pancakes

You might be intrigued by the headline considering that blueberries and corn don’t immediately sound like a match made in heaven.

But don’t let the confusing combination fool you!

This pancake recipe is based off the blue zone diet. You might have heard about blue zones around the world where people live longer, healthier lives.

Well, their secret isn’t just good luck — it’s their diet! Think of it as a treasure trove of wholesome, plant-based foods, lean proteins, and healthy fats that can do wonders for your well-being.

And guess what? This mouthwatering recipe perfectly aligns with this fantastic way of eating: blueberry cornmeal pancakes. Picture this: delicious pancakes bursting with juicy blueberries and the warm, comforting taste of cornmeal. Sounds heavenly, right?

But it’s not just about the taste; it’s about the incredible health benefits packed into every bite.

Blueberries are like nature’s little powerhouses, loaded with antioxidants that can help fight inflammation and keep your heart healthy. Plus, they’re linked to better brain function and a lower risk of age-related memory decline. And let’s not forget about the goodness of cornmeal, adding a delightful texture and a boost of fiber and nutrients to your morning stack.

Personally, I really enjoy making these pancakes when I’m camping!

I recently used my new Solo Stove Ranger with a cast iron griddle top to cook these pancakes by the river in Asheville, North Carolina. Check out the video below to see how that Saturday morning went:

But wait, there’s more! By whipping up these blueberry cornmeal pancakes, you’re not only treating yourself to a delicious breakfast but also making a positive impact on the planet.

How? Well, many blue zone diets emphasize using locally sourced, seasonal ingredients, which means you’re supporting sustainable food practices and reducing your carbon footprint.

It’s a win-win situation—you get to indulge in a scrumptious meal while also doing your part to create a healthier world for everyone.

So, what are you waiting for? Let’s fire up the griddle and dive into a plateful of goodness that’ll leave you feeling nourished, satisfied, and ready to conquer the day!
