Hemp Heart Pancakes with Blueberry Compote

These gluten free, vegan, soy free pancakes will let you give in to your weekend brunch cravings without making you feel like you gave in to temptation.
"Hemp Hearts" are hulled hemp seeds and can be found sold as both. I buy mine in bulk at Whole Foods to save on cost. They are a perfect, incredibly beneficial addition to these but don't stop there. Add them to smoothies or sprinkle them on top of yogurt or salad.
