Blueberry Pancakes with Blueberry Syrup

This syrup is based on a Nigella Lawson recipe.
If you think this is blueberry overkill you can just use regular pancakes with the syrup. It's so delicious! What I love about the blueberries in the pancake mix is that they stay tart while the ones in the syrup are cooked and sweet. I usually just use one punnet of blueberries and split it up into 1/2 for the syrup and 1/2 for the pancakes. This recipe is so simple but so delicious!
