Ingredients:

• Blueberry sauce:
  • 150g blueberries
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons of water
  • 3 tablespoons of sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of cornstarch
• Crepes:
  • 240 ml of water
  • 240 ml of milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon cardamom

Instructions:

1. Prepare the blueberry sauce:
   • In a saucepan, combine the blueberries, cinnamon, water, sugar and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, until the sauce thickens. Let cool slightly.

2. Prepare the pancake batter:
   • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, water and milk. Add the sugar, vanilla and cardamom, mixing until well combined.
   • Gradually sift in the flour, whisking until the dough is smooth. Let the dough rest for 20 minutes.

3. Cook the pancakes:
   • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly butter it. Pour about 1/2 cup of batter into the center of the pan, tilting the pan to distribute the batter evenly.
   • Cook the crepe until the edges are dry and can be lifted with a spatula, about 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for an additional minute.
   • Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to pan if necessary.
4. Serve:
   • Serve the pancakes hot, topped with the homemade blueberry sauce and a pinch of powdered sugar.
