Ingredients for Homemade Blueberry Pancakes

• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
• 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
2. Whisk wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the egg into the milk until well combined.
3. Combine batter: Pour the egg-milk mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
4. Add butter and berries: Stir in melted butter, then gently fold in fresh blueberries.
5. Rest the batter: For extra-fluffy pancakes, let the batter sit for 1 hour at room temperature.
6. Cook pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown, about 2–3 minutes per side.
7. Serve hot: Stack your pancakes, drizzle with maple syrup, and top with extra berries or whipped cream.

Expert Tips & Tricks

• Tip: Gently fold in the blueberries to avoid bursting them in the batter.
• Storage: Keep leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in a toaster or oven for best texture.
• Make it vegan: Swap the egg for a flax “egg” (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water) and use plant-based milk.
