We love pancakes! These slimming friendly Bacon and Maple Blueberry Pancakes are a perfect, filling breakfast for Pancake Day.
Despite its popularity in the US, we’d never tried bacon and maple syrup together. To be honest it wasn’t a combination that had ever taken our fancy. However, we thought we’d give it a go – and we’re glad we did! Bacon and Maple and Blueberry Pancakes have become a firm favourite of ours.
We use Ready Brek instead of traditional flour. We love the texture this gives the pancakes, and it is high fibre so it will fill you up for longer. Feel free to use an equivalent measure of oats, blitzed in a food processor. We love the convenience of Ready Brek. Anything to make mornings simpler!

Hi, What are you classing as one portion? One pancake or 4
LisaSunday 24th January 2021
Hi Karen
If you scroll down to the end of the page you’ll find the recipe card which states the servings. This recipe serves one, however it’s entirely up to you. If you think it’s too big a portion for you, you can half the recipe and the calories.
Debbie ThomasWednesday 24th July 2019
in some of your pancake recipes there are 2 eggs and others there are no eggs. Why is this?
Emma TWednesday 25th September 2019
Hi Debbie,
It really depends on the recipe – it means there are different options for people. If a pancake recipe doesn’t use eggs, it normally relies on the binding properties of the oats to hold the pancake together ????
Lisa WadeSaturday 26th January 2019
Can you get away without blitzing, I don’t have one where I am, would it work? Thank you
Lisa
