Description

A delicious recipe for fluffy blueberry pancakes topped with syrup.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • Butter or oil for cooking
  • Blueberry syrup or maple syrup
  • Additional blueberries for garnish

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients:
    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients:
    In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Combine Mixtures:
    Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; lumps are okay.
  4. Add Blueberries:
    Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  5. Prepare Cooking Surface:
    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
  6. Cook Pancakes:
    Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve:
    Stack the pancakes on a plate, and top with a pat of butter and a generous drizzle of blueberry syrup. Garnish with additional blueberries if desired.

Notes

  • For extra fluffiness, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • Substitute almond milk or soy milk for a dairy-free option.
  • Use frozen blueberries if fresh ones are not available; just make sure to thaw and drain them first.
  • For a citrusy twist, add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the batter.
