Preheat the griddle or skillet over medium heat.

Blueberry syrup
While the pancakes are cooking, defrost blueberries.
To a large jar or high speed blender, add the defrosted blueberries, maple syrup and chia seeds. Blend in a large mason jar with immersion blender or in a high speed blender
Let sit 3-5 minutes before using to thicken slightly.
Notes
To easily make all the pancakes at once, use a large electric griddle. These griddles evenly distribute the heat and have a bigger surface area than a pan. This makes flipping the pancakes easier
Preheat the skillet or griddle so the pancakes go onto a hot surface. Don't turn the heat up too much. You want a medium low heat (about 300F) for electric griddles.
These pancakes don't always have the bubbles at the top that you might normally see with pancakes since they don't have any baking powder or baking soda. So instead look for the edges to start getting browned as the key to when these need to be flipped
The batter of these pancakes is thick, so you will want to flatten out the pancake batter or the center will not cook completely.
Instead of making huge pancakes, make 3-4 smaller pancakes. They cook up quicker and are easier to flip!
If you don't have oatmeal, you can use almond flour or gluten free flour instead.
Pancakes can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
