The Blanchard Nunataks are an east-west trending group of nunataks, about 16 nautical miles long, marking the south end of the Gutenko Mountains in central Palmer Land, in the British Antarctic Territory.

These nunataks were mapped by the United States Geological Survey in 1974, and the group was named by the American Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names, after Lloyd G. Blanchard of the Division of Polar Programmes and Assistant Editor of the Antarctic Journal of the United States.
