Heart Healthy Pancakes with Blackberry Reduction

I love breakfast and all the yummy food associated with it.  Last week, I got a wild hair and decided I wanted pancakes but I wanted to make them as healthy as possible while still keeping them tasty. I've tried using several different types of flour to make pancakes healthy but this has been the best variation that I have tried.  The blackberry reduction is sweet and pairs perfectly with the pancakes.  Try it at home and let me know what you think.

Ingredients for pancakes:

1 cup HeartSmart Bisquick

2-3 TBSP flax seed meal

2/3 cup skim milk 

Ingredients for blackberry reduction:

1 small container of blackberries (6 oz container)

2 TBSP sugar

1 tsp corn starch

Directions for pancakes:

1. Heat up a griddle on low to medium heat and put a little butter on it.

2. Mix flour, milk, & flax meal.

3. Using a ladle, place some batter in the middle of the griddle and spread out batter in a circular manner.

4. Once the pancake is done, the batter will start to bubble around the edges; when this happens, flip the cake and cook on the other side.

5.  Repeat until all of the batter is used up.

Directions for reduction:

1.  Heat a small pot over medium heat.

2.  Put all of the blackberries in the pot until they start to release the juices.

3.  Add the sugar and mix.

4.  In a separate bowl, mix the corn starch with some water until it is smooth without any lumps.

5.  Add corn starch mixture to the berries.

6.  Cook until desired consistency. 

7.  Place on top of the pancakes and enjoy!
