Fluffy Blueberry Pancakes

I recently tweaked my pancake recipe to include blueberries because they’re rich in antioxidants! These homemade blueberry pancakes are so light, and fluffy, that my partner told me to make them every Sunday!

If you don’t have fresh blueberries, you can use frozen ones like I do, and trust me they’re just as good!

Once you try these, I promise you’ll never need store-bought pancakes again.

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

• 4 teaspoons baking powder (it makes it extra fluffy)

• 1 tablespoon sugar

• A pinch of salt

• 1 large egg

• 40g unsalted butter, melted

• 1 ½ cups milk (add more if needed for desired consistency)

• ¾ cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Directions

• Prepare the Dry Ingredients first. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
• To the same bowl, add the egg, melted butter, and milk. Stir until just combined. If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk to reach a smooth consistency.
• Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix.
  
• Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour a scoop of batter onto the pan and cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2 minutes). Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
• Serve warm with maple syrup, extra blueberries, or a dusting of powdered sugar.

• I am currently using this pancake pan to make multiple pancakes, it’s awesome!

Notes:

Want your pancakes to be extra fluffy? Use buttermilk instead of regular milk for even lighter pancakes. (For dairy-free, mix 1 ½ cups plant-based milk with 1 tablespoon vinegar and let sit for 5 minutes.)
Can’t have dairy? Swap milk for almond, oat, coconut, or soy milk (unsweetened for best results). Replace butter with coconut oil or vegan butter.
How to adjust heat? I always start on medium heat and once the pan heats up nicely, you can reduce the heat a bit. The first pancake always takes a while to cook and you might have to sacrifice it to the Pancake Gods.
How to tell if it’s ready to flip? Just watch for the bubbles. Once the center portion gets bubbles and the edges become a little dry, you know it’s ready to flip. I also take a peek just to be sure!
