1.3. In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice, sugar, orange zest, and water.

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.
