Pancakes with raw blackberry filling

Our homemade freezejam whipped cream blackberry filling transforms our pancakes into a culinary masterpiece. The stability provided by xanthan gum allows us to use a piping bag, creating elegant, cake-like swirls of berry-infused whipped cream atop each pancake. This method not only adds a visual flair but ensures a perfect blend of sweet, tart blackberry in every bite, turning a simple breakfast into a delightful, berry-filled experience.
