  • MMmmmmm, I just love pancakes! Thanks for sharing this fluffy looking recipe, I made it for breakfast the other day! It was quick to prepare and delicious! 🙂
  • This is a great recipe because it’s easy and it works! Thank you!
  • Absolutely scrump-deli-umptious!!! Take a bit longer to cook, though, so keep that heat kinda low. I used fresh blueberries that were slightly tart and got all juicy and just awesome! The batter makes a ridiculously fluffy cake. Awesome!

How to make the best blueberry pancakes:

The complete, printable recipe is at the end of this post.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Then make a well in center of the mixture.
 
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, oil and vanilla; add to the dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened. Gently fold in the blueberries.

Pour about ¼ cup batter for each pancake onto a hot, lightly greased griddle or skillet. Cook the pancakes until the tops are covered with bubbles and the edges look cooked; turn and cook the other side.

Top with a generous pat of butter, if you’d like.

And then douse the whole stack with warm maple syrup. I like to add a few more blueberries on top. Enjoy!

About blueberries:

Smaller, fresh blueberries work best for blueberry pancakes. And you can also use frozen blueberries for this recipe. There is no need to thaw the frozen blueberries. They should thaw and cook right into the pancakes.

    I doubled the recipe, added 1 tsp nutmeg + 2 tsp cinnamon + 1 tsp vanilla. I also added 3 Tbs apple cider vinegar to buttermilk up the wet ingredients… AMAZING. Absolutely wonderful. Those suckers were fluffy and rose up to nearly 1 inch thick!

    ** I did end up needing to add quite a bit more milk than was required, however. Overall; a fabulous recipe!

    I made these using wheat flour since I had it on hand and have been wanting to use it. The pancakes were a little heavier because of this, but still very delicious! I used quite a bit more milk to thin out the batter. An easy/quick pancake recipe though!
