Banana and Blueberry Pancakes with Cinnamon Vanilla Butter
My son woke up one morning this week and asked if I would make him pancakes for breakfast. How could I say no to my sweet boy? I went online and found this banana and blueberry pancakes with cinnamon vanilla butter recipe on The Comfort of Cooking that looked irresistible. I was happy to find a recipe using the three overripe bananas on my counter and some fresh blueberries. These pancakes were a huge hit with my kids and they devoured them with smiles.

I keep meaning to make pancakes – I am off to the kitchen to make them right now before I put it off again 🙂 Have a great weekend Diane
You are a wonderful mama! This looks so good, would love to have one, or two of this right now with my tea!
Now I don’t usually crave a lot of breakfast foods… but I have a feeling I’ll be thinking of these pancakes all day!! They look wonderful, Pam – thanks for sharing! And the cinnamon vanilla butter would work with so many things!!!! YUM!
Of course they’d be hit!! I’d gobble like 10 batches of these!! And that cinnamon vanilla butter looks AH-MAZING! It would go so well on everything.

This made me SO hungry!
These pancakes sound really delicious, but that cinnamon vanilla butter sounds incredible!
I love that you managed to get TWO fruits into these pancakes! Definite winners. I want them for my weekend breakfast!
I’have never done pancakes I must make them
Gosh, the photos are so GOOD that I want to lick the screen!
You may have noticed that my blog didn’t work last three days, now blogger finally fixed the problem and my blog works fine now.

My grandkids will LOVE this, thank you!!
I know the power of a good breakfast, but darn it! I am not a morning person, so making those gorgeous hotcakes would be a huge effort on my part! Don’t suppose you’d consider coming to my house and making that mouthwatering breakfast for me one sunny Sunday morning …?
Jack Johnson’s song about “makin’ banana pancakes” is a household fave – but this is the first time I’ve done it. Substituted in 1/2 c. whole wheat flour, added about a tbsp canola oil and a couple tsp. brown sugar to the batter. Yummmmm…. thanks!
Yum!! Thank you!!
I have a blog giveaway going on ! Hope you join in for a chance to win!!!

This sounds good. I couldn’t bring your quiche recipe up though.
it is impossible to say no to a kid with a request like that. so nice of you. love those pics.
these look delicious… and my blueberries need to be used ASAP before they spoil!
Very beautiful and delicious! Looks very professional. I’m gonna try to make it also. Thanks.
Trevor and I were just discussing various ideas for waffles this morning. I wonder if I can alter this into a waffle batter. hmmmmm
These look delicious and the recipe looks simple, I definitely have to make these pancakes!
these were great! I’ve made them a couple of times, with and without blueberries. I love them either way, but highly recommend the ones with blueberries. I ate the with a little bit of margarine and thought they were great. Also, I’m on weight watchers now, and using the recipe builder app I lightened up the recipe (swapped in 0 fat milk) and each pancake (the recipe yields 17 pancakes) was worth 2 pts. Totally worth it!
Can you make me one too? 😀
