Instructions
- Place two cups of fresh blueberries into a medium sauce pan, and add sugar and salt. Cook on medium-low heat for approximately 10 minutes. Stir occasionally until most of the blueberries pop. Take pan off the heat source and immediately add lemon zest, lemon juice and 1 cup of fresh blueberries.
- Mix together the dry ingredients: All-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar.
- Whip 4 egg whites until stiff peaks. This can take a few minutes, so be patient!

- Add wet ingredients into dry and blend together. Fold in egg whites. No mixing here, only folding until well combined. Fold in the remaining blueberries.
- Place 1/4 cup batter onto a 325 degree griddle that has been lightly oiled. Flip cakes over when they are bubbly around the perimeter, somewhat in the middle and they are golden on the bottom.
- Serve with blueberry compote; and if calories are not to be discussed, add a drizzle of maple syrup and dollop of whipped cream.
