Mix up a batch of Blueberry Coconut Oatmeal Pancakes and serve them up with more fresh blueberries and maple syrup for a fun and festive breakfast or brunch.

Unlike blueberry pancakes made with plain flour, this version is a bit heartier with the added oats and shredded coconut without being heavy.

Surprisingly, these pancakes made with “homemade” oatmeal flour cook into a really light and fluffy texture. Two pancakes are just 124 calories, so there’s no need to feel guilty about indulging in this tasty pancake breakfast. 

I can’t think of anything better for a July 4th brunch, can you?

Blueberry Coconut Oatmeal Pancakes

Thanks to my father-in-law, we’ve been enjoying fresh blueberries the last few weeks from his prize blueberry bushes. So far, we’ve used the berries to make fresh smoothies, Blueberry Pie Bars, and now my newest experiment, Blueberry Coconut Oatmeal Pancakes.

Old-fashioned rolled oats, unsweetened coconut, and all-purpose flour are blended together to make a special flour as the base for the pancakes.

Toss in a handful of  fresh blueberries along with a little lemon extract to brighten up the flavors and you have a delicious summer breakfast or brunch!

How to make Blueberry Coconut Oatmeal Pancakes

  1. The first step in making the batter is to process equal amounts of old-fashioned rolled oats, shredded coconut, and all-purpose flour in a blender or food processor to break down the oats. Make your own “oat flour” by pulsing until the mixture is a flour-like consistency, but not completely fine—you want to leave a little texture.
  2. Preheat a nonstick electric griddle to 325 degrees — a slightly lower temperature than normally used for cooking pancakes —to avoid burning the coconut in the batter.
  3. You may notice that the batter is thinner than normal pancakes, so pour the batter onto the griddle slowly which will help them not spread too quickly.
  4. Cook until golden (about two-three minutes on each side) and serve with butter and maple syrup or extra blueberries and a dusting of powdered sugar.
