Directions
Prepare the Pancakes
Prepare the pancake batter according to the package directions using the pancake mix, eggs, water, vanilla, and melted butter or oil. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
If needed, add additional water 1 tablespoon at a time until the batter is easy to spoon and spread into 4-inch pancakes. The batter should be thick but spreadable. (You don’t want the batter too thick or the batter won’t yield enough pancakes to make the pudding.)
Heat a lightly greased griddle or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour about ¼ cup batter for each pancake onto the hot surface and gently spread into a 4-inch circle.
Cook until the edges appear dry and the bottoms are golden brown, about 1–2 minutes. Flip and cook another minute, or until the centers spring back lightly when touched.
Assemble the Pancakes
Lightly grease an 8 x 8-inch baking dish.
Slice each pancake in half and arrange cut-side down in overlapping rows in the baking dish. Scatter half of the blueberries between the pancake layers and over the top.
Prepare the Custard
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, sweetener, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
Pour the custard evenly over the pancakes. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the custard to fully soak into the pancakes.
Bake
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes, or until puffed and the custard is set in the center.
Allow the bread pudding to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Make the Lemon Yogurt Sauce & Finish
Whisk together the yogurt, half-and-half, sweetener, lemon zest, and salt until smooth.
If needed, thin with additional half-and-half, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.
Top with the remaining blueberries and drizzle with sugar-free syrup or Lemon Yogurt Sauce.
