If there’s one thing the Pacific Northwest does best in the summertime (besides breathtaking views), it’s berries. And right now, it’s huckleberry season—the crown jewel of wild summer fruit.
Whether you're picking them fresh on a weekend hike, grabbing a pint from your favorite local farm stand, or stumbling upon a basket at the Saturday market, these tiny, tart-sweet berries bring all the summer magic straight to your plate. And we’ve found the perfect way to enjoy them…
Huckleberry Pancakes & Waffles: A Summer Morning Must
Light, fluffy, golden, and just the right amount of sweet—our Appel Heights Pancake & Waffle Mix is already a brunch staple around here. But when you fold in fresh huckleberries? Total game-changer.
This easy-to-make mix creates the kind of pancakes and waffles that feel both homey and elevated. The kind you want to enjoy barefoot on the porch, coffee in hand, with sun streaming in through the window. Huckleberries take it to the next level with a flavor that’s bright, wild, and oh-so PNW.
Want to Make It Even More Memorable?
Plan a full huckleberry adventure.
Grab your baskets, lace up your hiking boots, and head to the mountains with your favorite people. There’s something pretty magical about picking your own berries in the wild—plus, you’ll earn those pancakes. Whether you go solo, make it a family day, or turn it into a weekend tradition, it’s the kind of simple summer memory that sticks.
