Mix up the batter, heat the griddle and bring out the butter and syrup. It’s time to whip up a delicious batch of Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes.
These fluffy, homemade griddle cakes are the perfect way to recognize National Pancake Day and National Better Breakfast Day. Both days are celebrated annually on September 26th.
Looks like the batter-made breakfast item has been around for more than 30,000 years! In fact, pancakes may be the oldest breakfast food in history. Versions of pancakes date way back to the Ancient Greeks in the fifth century B.C. It wasn’t until 2005 though that the national observance was started as an excuse to eat pancakes.
Since breakfast, for many people, is often a low priority, Better Breakfast Day was created to bring attention and awareness to the most important meal of the day. In September 1951, the Cereal Institute promoted Better Breakfast Month for the first time. Anyway you look at it, if there was a day to eat pancakes, September 26th is that day.
However, if pancakes aren’t your favorite breakfast food, check out my recipe for Skillet Potato & Eggs here , which is another perfect breakfast option.
Whether it’s a hotcake holiday or not, Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes are an outstanding breakfast choice to start the day off right!
