Blueberry Pancake Recipe

Maine Blueberry Pancake for Breakfast:)

Hello Everyone :)

I fell in-love the first time I was at Maine. It was such a great vacation that I'm thinking going back there next year (hopeful). I know, sometimes I get little obsessed but to tell you- I missed being at Maine-the place was just incredible, relaxing, full of adventures awaits, and breath-taking views. On top of that, wild Maine blueberries is everywhere. Yes, literally everywhere! So, I helped myself and grabbed blueberries while we we're at Cadillac Mountain & Acadia Mountain. So, today's pancake recipe is inspired by this delicious Maine Wild Blueberries.

If you want to learn more about Maine, Southwest Harbor vacation check out my blog post HERE. Our a-MAINE-zing Summer Vacation ... enjoy this delicious blueberry pancake with your family!:)

Maine Blueberry Pancake Recipe

Notes: On this recipe I used store bought pancake mix and frozen wild Maine blueberries. Feel free to use any homemade pancake batter recipe and either fresh or frozen blueberries on hand.

Ingredients:

2 cups Pancake Mix 

1 1/2 cup water

Butter

1 cup Maine Blueberries- frozen

Directions:

1.) Combine pancake mix and water in a bowl and stir until large lumps disappear. Set aside

2.) Pour slightly less than 1/4 cup batter onto hot pan (lightly grease pan if necessary)

3.) Then, add frozen blueberries on top of the pancake. Turn pancakes when tops are covered with bubbles and edges looks dry. Turn only once and cook the other side for about a minute.

4.) When little bubbles appear on the pancake, then its ready to flip. Wait for another minute until the other side is cook.

5.) Serve hot with butter on top and maple syrup. Yum! Enjoy :)

I can't get over how amazing Maine, Southwest Harbor. It has everything to offer from delicious and good eats, to scenic picturesque views, adventures that the whole family love and enjoy. It just amazing how this simple recipe took me back to Maine- the adventures that we did, the hikes and trails, and all the memorable moments that we had at Maine. I can talk about our Maine Vacation forever, But, I'll stop for now (hahah) Anyways, I hope you enjoy this delicious recipe as much as I do. I will see you ext time for more fun blog post. Stay gorgeous as always!:)

#TruFanCommunity #Crowdtap

Hello Everyone!

I'm calling all the Mango lovers out-there to try this super easy scrumptious Mango Cake recipe. I'm extremely excited about this recipe because I LOVE Mango Cake! It is actually one of my favorite and been wanting it for long time. When I made my first Mango Cake the other day, I was so stoked with the results. I couldn't asked for more, it was indeed DELICIOUS cake! Officially, my kids are now Mango Cake fanatic. Awesome right? I hope you guys are all excited as we unfold how easy it is to make this Homemade Mango Cake at the comfort of your own home. Let's get started, shall we? :)

I know you guys are excited to make this Mango Cake. BUT, before we get into baking. Let me give you an overview on some of the ingredients that I used on this recipe. Stared off with the main ingredients.

Mango- I highly recommend to use fresh ripe mangoes on this recipe. In case its not available, I think frozen or can mangoes will work just fine.

Cream Cheese Icing- feel free to use your favorite icing recipe but I prefer store bought.  The last ingredient that I'd like to introduce to you is this amazing  NEW Truvía^® Nectar blend  Truvía^® Nectar has 50% fewer calories per serving than sugar and adds a touch of sweetness wherever you would use agave, sugar or honey. Blended with Stevie leaf extract and honey. Its reduced-calorie way to love honey. I received this Truvia Nectar Blend for free courtesy from Crowdtap and TruviaCrowd I'm really pleased and happy with this product, its perfect pair that added sweetness into my Mango Cake recipe. Indeed a perfect blend of flavors. Yum! Here we go with the recipe!:)

Note: Make this Mango Cake as your own recipe. Adjust the taste according to your preference!:)

Mango Cake Recipe

Ingredients:
(3) Ripe Mangoes- chopped
1/2 teaspoon Truvia Nectar Blend
Cream Cheese icing
Non-stick cooking spray
(2) round baking pan for double layered cake
(1) 15.25 oz white cake mix
1 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs

* Preheat oven to 350 degree Fahrenheit

Mango Creme Filling - to make the mango creme filling. Simply placed the chopped ripped mangoes into a bowl. Add 1/2 teaspoon of Truvia Nectar Blend for sweetness. Stir until thoroughly combine. Set aside.

Cream Cheese Icing with Mango Bits- to make cream cheese mango bits icing is extremely easy. Just simply combine the store bought icing of your choice, add ripped mashed mangoes and stir until combine. Set aside

Directions: 

1.) To make the cake batter. Simply follow the directions on the back of the cake mix. Mix,  1 cup water, 1/2 cup oil, 3 eggs in large bowl with mixer on medium speed or by hand for 2 minutes. Add finely chopped mango into the mix.

2.) Spray the pan with non-stick cooking spray. Pour the cake batter into pan. Bake at 350 degree Fahrenheit preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan. Cool completely before frosting.

3.) As you can see on the photo above. I put frosting on the cake before adding the next layer. This will allow the cake to stick  together make it easy for frosting process. I also lay parchment paper on the bottom for easy clean up after I frost the cake.

4.) Make sure that the whole cake is covered with icing. Then, put the Mango Creme filling on the top of the iced cake. Add the remaining icing on the side to secure the Mango Creme filling from falling out to the side.
