Got red, white and blue on your mind yet? We’re starting to think ahead to 4th of July already. My son is most excited about lighting sparklers. They’re not allowed in California, but luckily we’ll be on the East coast for the big day so we can easily locate them! My husband is most excited for the food I’m going to make, and I’m most excited about utilizing berries to make some patriotic treats!
Let’s start with this Double Berry Puff Pancake.
It’s definitely a fun summer breakfast treat if you find that you have access to some wonderful, fresh berries.
How to make a Double Berry Puff Pancake:
The recipe begins in the blender. Use your blender (or a mixer) to combine the batter ingredients, and then pour it into a hot, oven-safe skillet. A cast-iron skillet works perfectly.
Scatter fresh berries on top. I like to use blueberries and raspberries.
Move the skillet to the oven, and bake the pancake until it’s puffy and cooked through. It’ll get all wobbly looking like you see in the photo.
Serve slices with fresh cream or a sprinkle of powdered sugar. My sweets-loving hubby drizzles maple syrup on top too.
Enjoy this special treat. And may you twirl a sparkler or two in the coming weeks… just for fun. Cause when’s the last time you did that, right?

looks wonderful…we are swimming in blueberries right now, South Jerzee is one the major blueberry growers in the nation. they are wonderful! So are you going to be anywhere by Atlantic City NJ, I would love to meet you if you are…I have worked in the casinos for over 33 years and the 4 of July is usually our busiest weekend, but I would find time…m

This is gorgeous! And I love how easy this is to make! I’m sure this will be in rotation at our house during the weekends.
Wow, this looks amazing Lori! I love that it’s SO easy, too! Even easier than a batch of pancakes. Going to try it soon!
Now THAT’S a pancake!
Is there a flour someone can recommend to make this gluten-free? It looks to good to not make, but I’m trying to cut out gluten.
Try using a GF flour blend that you like.
That’s a beautiful Dutch Baby! Love the fresh berries giving it the perfect colors for the Fourth.
This recipe looks easy and like a real treat for a weekend morning. Thanks for sharing it!
Yum, what an amazing breakfast! The fresh berries are a great color, and I am sure they add great flavor!! Wish we could do sparklers this year, but it is too dry in Colorado 🙁
Looks beautiful! Yummmmmm 🙂
