CHICOPEE, Mass. (WWLP) – Tuesday is National Blueberry Pancake Day, which celebrates the sweetness that blueberries add to your pancake, flapjack, or hotcake.

Pancakes date back over 30,000 years, according to the National Day Calendar. The early pancakes consisted of flour and milk and were more like biscuits. Eggs, milk, a leavening agent (such as baking powder), and fat were added later on to create the fluffier, lighter pancake we know now.
Blueberries add freshness to pancakes and nutrients such as vitamin K, vitamin C, manganese, and copper. To avoid your pancake batter from turning blue, add them right after dropping dollops of batter into your pan or hot griddle.
