Add all of the pancake ingredients to a blender and blend for 60 seconds. Let the pancake batter sit for 30 minutes to thicken.
While waiting for the batter to thicken, place the blueberries and water in a sauce pan over medium heat. Once the mixture comes to a boil, place on low to simmer for 20 minutes and stir about every 5 minutes. Take the syrup off stove and let it cool completely.
Place frypan or griddle over medium heat and wait 3-5 minutes for the pan to warm up.
Use a ⅓ cup measuring cup to scoop out each pancake and pour into the pan, wait for the edges to start bubbling and flip to cook the other side. Cook each side for about 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
Place 3 pancakes on a plate and cover with a ¼ of the fresh blueberry syrup.
