Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
Wet Ingredients:
- 5 tablespoons (75 milliliters) butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Butter for frying
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons light brown sugar
Instructions
- Blend dry ingredients in a spacious mixing vessel, ensuring uniform distribution of flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Whisk eggs thoroughly in a separate container, then incorporate vanilla, milk, and liquefied butter until smoothly integrated.
- Gently merge wet and dry mixtures, stirring minimally to prevent over-mixing and maintain a light texture.
- Delicately introduce fresh blueberries into the batter, distributing them evenly throughout.
- Prepare cooking surface by warming a griddle or skillet to medium heat (around 375°F), lightly coating with butter to prevent sticking.
- Ladle batter onto heated surface, creating circular pancakes approximately 4 inches in diameter.
- Monitor pancakes carefully, waiting until small bubbles emerge across the surface and edges appear slightly firm, typically 2-3 minutes.
- Flip pancakes with a smooth motion, cooking opposite side until achieving a golden-brown appearance, approximately 1-2 minutes.
- Transfer finished pancakes to serving plates, presenting them while warm and optionally adorning with additional butter and maple syrup.
Notes
- Avoid overmixing the batter, which can make pancakes tough; mix just until ingredients are combined for light, fluffy results.
- Freeze fresh blueberries before adding to prevent color bleeding and maintain pancake texture.
- Test griddle temperature by sprinkling water droplets; they should sizzle and dance, indicating perfect cooking heat.
- For gluten-free option, substitute all-purpose flour with almond or oat flour and add extra baking powder for lift.
