Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 ¼ cups (300ml) buttermilk (or 1 ¼ cups milk + 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar, let sit 5 minutes)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (150g) fresh blueberries (frozen can be used, do not thaw)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until evenly combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined; small lumps are fine. Do not overmix.
  4. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to break them up.
  5. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
  6. Pour ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Flip carefully and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Adjust heat as needed.
  8. Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven or on a cooling rack while finishing the batch.
  9. Serve immediately with maple syrup, extra blueberries, or butter.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs and buttermilk for best results. Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy. Fold blueberries gently to avoid breaking them. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven or on a cooling rack. Frozen blueberries can be used without thawing. If batter is too thick, add a splash more buttermilk.
