Today’s recipe comes to us courtesy of the great Dr. Mark Hyman and is a great healthy breakfast option. His blueberry walnut pancake recipe is packed with essential nutrients your body needs and comes without gluten or dairy, two common food sensitivities. This recipe can also be doubled and stored in the freezer. If you want a bit more sweetness then drizzle with real maple syrup (remember to check the ingredient label on your maple syrup to ensure its purity.)
