Gluten-Free Blueberry Collagen Pancakes with Collagen Compote

Breakfast recipes

This healthy blueberry pancake recipe has everything going for it: dairy-free, gluten-free, and packed with collagen peptides.

  1. Makes: 6 pancakes
  2. Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 large egg at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil melted (plus more for greasing the pan)
  • 3/4 cup gluten-free pancake mix
  • 1/2 cup Great Lakes Wellness Unflavored Collagen divided
  • 2 cups blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup plus more for serving

Directions

  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the almond milk, egg, vanilla, and coconut oil until combined.
  • Add the pancake mix and 1/4 cup of Great Lakes Wellness Unflavored Collagen. Whisk until smooth, adding a splash or two more almond milk if the batter is too thick. You’re going for the texture of a smoothie, not porridge.
  • Heat a 5-inch cast iron skillet over a medium-high flame. Lightly brush the pan with coconut oil.
  • Add 1/3 cup of batter to the pan and arrange 7 or so blueberries on top. Cook until the pancake pulls away from the sides of the pan and begins to bubble towards the center, about 2 minutes.
  • Flip and cook for another minute on the second side, until puffed and lightly browned.
  • Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter. You should have 6 thin pancakes in total. 6. Meanwhile, place 1 1/2 cups of the blueberries, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and 2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, uncovered, until the berries have released their juices and begun to breakdown into a thin jam, about 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining collagen and set aside.
  • Serve the pancakes drizzled with the compote, and garnished with the remaining blueberries.
  • Serve alongside maple syrup and butter or ghee.
