Blueberry Pancakes from a Mix

These are just regular pancakes from a box mix with blueberries stirred in, and that's exactly the point. You make the batter per the box, scatter in fresh or frozen blueberries, and cook them in one pan like normal pancakes. It's an easy way to get a warm, satisfying breakfast with some fruit worked in without any extra effort or dishes, and it fits easily into a tracked macro day since you control the portion and toppings.
