As a busy professional, juggling work, family, and a social life, finding time for elaborate cooking is a luxury I rarely afford myself.

It's so satisfying to watch those little bubbles form on the surface, the aroma of warm pancakes filling the kitchen. It's a small moment of calm amidst the chaos of life.

What I love most about this recipe is how easily it can be adapted. Feeling creative? Try adding other fruits like raspberries or chopped bananas. Want a richer flavour? A teaspoon of vanilla extract works wonders. Need to make it gluten-free? Simply substitute the spelt flour with a gluten-free blend.

The versatility means that it’s just as easy to whip up a batch for a quiet weekend brunch as it is to prepare enough for a crowd during a family gathering or a casual get-together with friends.

Step-by-step

• In a medium bowl, stir together spelt flour, oat bran, wheat bran, baking soda, and salt.
• Add soy milk and stir until thoroughly combined.
• Brush a large nonstick or cast-iron griddle or skillet with oil and heat over moderate heat until hot but not smoking.
• Working in 3 to 4 batches, pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the griddle and press 12 to 15 blueberries into each pancake.
• Cook until bubbles appear and pop on the surface and undersides are golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Flip pancakes, then turn off the heat and let pancakes continue to cook in the pan until undersides are firm and light golden brown, about 3 minutes more.
• Transfer to a plate, berry side up, and keep warm.
• Repeat to cook remaining pancakes, oiling and reheating the griddle between each batch.
• Serve pancakes warm with additional berries and maple syrup.
