Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup buttermilk (or regular milk with 1 tsp vinegar or lemon juice)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for cooking)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- ¾ cup fresh or frozen blueberries (do not thaw if using frozen)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. - Prepare Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. - Combine
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix — the batter should be slightly lumpy. Gently fold in the blueberries. - Cook
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour ¼ cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. - Serve
Serve warm with maple syrup, a pat of butter, extra blueberries, or even a dusting of powdered sugar.
Tips for the Best Blueberries Pancakes
- Don’t overmix the batter—this keeps your pancakes tender and fluffy.
- If using frozen blueberries, toss them in a bit of flour to prevent bleeding into the batter.
- Try adding a touch of lemon zest for a bright, citrusy note.
- For a healthier twist, you can replace half the flour with whole wheat flour or oat flour.
Serving Ideas
- Top with whipped cream and extra berries for a brunch-worthy dish.
- Pair with a glass of orange juice or coffee.
- Make a pancake sandwich with almond butter and banana slices in between.
