Have you ever wanted to serve pancakes to a crowd? It's not easy to do. Cold pancakes are no good, and you want to make sure that everyone gets to eat at the same time. There's an answer for this dilemma, however. The next time you want to make sure everyone gets to enjoy a hot breakfast together, make the recipe that follows.
Not only does this blueberry pancake casserole feed many, but it's also easy to make. The entire thing goes into the fridge overnight so you can spend time enjoying coffee with your breakfast bunch rather than sweating it out in the kitchen. And when you pull it out of the oven, you can listen to all the "oohs" and "aahs" while everyone talks about how hard you must have worked. (You don't have to tell them that you didn't.)
