Steps:
- Sift together the teff, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar (if using sugar). In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, buttermilk, oil, vanilla, and honey or agave nectar if using. Quickly whisk in the flour mixture and fold in the chia seeds and millet.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and brush with butter or oil. Drop the pancakes by the scant 1/4 cup onto the hot pan or griddle. Place 7 or 8 blueberries on each pancake, gently pushing them down into the batter. Cook until bubbles break through and turn the pancakes. Cook for about 1 minute on the other side, until lightly browned. Remove to a rack. Serve with maple syrup and butter.

TEFF AND OATMEAL PANCAKES
Teff is a tiny, nutrient-dense grain native to Ethiopia. Its calcium content is higher than that of any other grain, and it's an excellent source of vitamin C. It has a low glycemic index and is gluten-free, though these pancakes are not. I grind the tiny grains into flour in my spice mill, but you can also find teff flour in whole-foods stores.

Steps:
- Sift together the flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs. Whisk in the agave syrup and molasses (if using), buttermilk, canola oil and vanilla. Quickly whisk in the flour mix. Do not overwork the batter. Stir in the cooked oatmeal
- Heat a griddle or a large skillet, either nonstick or seasoned cast iron, over medium-high heat. Brush with butter or oil. Use a 1/4-cup ladle or cup measure to drop 3 to 4 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto your heated pan or griddle
- Toss the berries with 1 teaspoon flour in a bowl. Place 6 to 7 berries on each pancake (more if using small wild blueberries), gently pressing them down into the batter. When bubbles break through the pancakes, flip the pancakes over and cook for another minute, or until they are brown on the other side. Serve right away, or allow to cool and wrap individual servings in plastic, then place in a freezer bag and freeze
