Lemon-blueberry pancakes
Description
Delicious baked treats for the whole family. During blueberry season, be sure to treat yourself to pancakes using a recipe from American housewives. Their unique flavor, enhanced with berries and lemon that go perfectly together, along with easy preparation, will make them a favorite in many kitchens. Condensed milk is used instead of regular milk, as regular milk would simply curdle due to the acidity. Adjust the sugar to your taste, and you may omit the vanilla sugar. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
