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.
