Blueberry & Almond pancakes (Paleo)

Just had these yummy pancakes for breakfast. I have a few variations of American pancakes on my website but this one is a lighter and protein-rich version. As they are not very dense you just need to be gentler with them and flip carefully. But they are well worth the effort!
You can play around with the mixture adding different fruit and even adding some nuts. Pecans would be great.
