Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, if out of season)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Batter

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. Fold in the blueberries gently.

Step 3: Cook the Pancakes

  1. Once the skillet is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Tips

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
  • If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding to the batter to prevent the pancakes from turning blue.
  • These pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or frozen for up to 2 months. Reheat in a toaster or microwave.

Enjoy your delicious homemade blueberry pancakes!
