Instructions:

1. Prepare the Orange Syrup:

1.2. Squeeze the juice from the orange.
1.3. In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice, sugar, orange zest, and water.
1.4. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then lower the heat and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until it thickens into a syrup consistency.
1.5. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. Prepare the Pancake Batter:
2.1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until they are light and frothy.
2.2. Add the coconut milk and a dash of salt to the eggs. Stir to combine.

2.4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined (be careful not to over-mix).
2.5. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
3. Cook the Pancakes:
3.1. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of oil or butter.

Tips:

- Use fresh blueberries if possible.: Fresh blueberries will give the pancakes a burst of juiciness and a vibrant color. If using frozen blueberries, make sure to thaw and drain them well.

- Ensure even cooking.: Cook the pancakes over medium heat to prevent burning and ensure they cook evenly. Flip them once you see bubbles forming on the surface.

- Keep the pancakes warm.: Place cooked pancakes in a preheated oven (around 200°F or 90°C) to keep them warm while you finish cooking the remaining batter.

- Customize the sweetness of the syrup.: If you prefer a sweeter syrup, you can add more sugar or a bit of honey to taste.

- Experiment with toppings.: Try adding other toppings like toasted coconut flakes, additional fresh fruits, or a drizzle of maple syrup to enhance the flavor and presentation.
