Fluffy vegan pancakes made with whole wheat flour and dotted with beautiful blueberries! You must make the blueberry topping, too.
I made these pancakes for a couple friends, my parents and I Sunday morning and they were both delicious and extremely filling. This recipe serves roughly 4-5 people and is super easy! (Although you may want to make more topping than I)
This pancake recipe is based off of my last recipe for Banana Pancakes with some changes.
Whole Wheat Blueberry Pancakes

Delicious whole wheat pancakes dotted with sweet blueberries and covered in a delightful fruit topping.
Ingredients
Pancakes
- 1 1/2 cups (355 ml) water
- 1 cup (235 ml) unsweetened non-dairy milk
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) melted coconut oil
- 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) agave nectar
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
Topping
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup agave nectar
- 1/2 cup water, divided
- 2 teaspoons arrowroot starch
Instructions
- For the pancakes, place water, milk, coconut oil, flaxseed, and agave nectar in a mixing bowl, whisking until smooth and combined. Next, sift flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and sea salt over the wet mixture, mixing everything together gently until there are no large dry pockets.
- Fold blueberries into the batter until incorporated, then set batter aside to rest for 5 minutes while you prep the blueberry topping.
- For the topping, in a saucepan over medium-high heat, place blueberries, agave nectar, and half of the water, bringing mixture to a boil. Adjust heat to medium-low, and simmer for 10 minutes. (you can start making pancakes during this time)
- Once the blueberries have broken down, whisk remaining water and arrowroot starch together then add to the saucepan and simmer for another 3 to 5 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. Then turn heat off, until ready to serve.
- Pour pancake batter onto a oiled, flat skillet heated to medium, in 5-inch circles. When many bubbles start coming out of the top (approx 2-3 minutes) flip the pancake over and cook for 2-4 more minutes or until desired darkness.
- Repeat with remaining batter until all is used up. Serve warm and topped with the blueberry compote, plus some powdered sugar if you want to get fancy!
Notes
If you're not serving these pancakes right out of the skillet, I recommend heating your oven to 200F and placing them on a baking sheet, just slightly overlapping. So that they stay warm for serving at the same time.
