Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus more for cooking)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add-ins
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (if using frozen, do not thaw)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully integrated.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently just until combined; avoid overmixing to keep the batter light.
- Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh or frozen blueberries to distribute them evenly without breaking them.
- Heat Skillet: Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter to prevent sticking.
- Cook Pancakes: Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set.
- Flip Pancakes: Flip each pancake and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve Warm: Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve with maple syrup, extra blueberries, or powdered sugar as desired.
Notes
- For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes before cooking.
- You can substitute buttermilk for regular milk to add a tangy flavor.
- These pancakes freeze well and can be reheated in a toaster or microwave.
