Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to ensure a smooth, lump-free dry mixture.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it. Gently fold the ingredients together using a spatula, being careful not to overmix. Some small lumps are okay - overmixing can lead to tough pancakes.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes at room temperature. This allows the flour to absorb the liquid and helps create a lighter, fluffier texture.
- Heat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or cooking spray.
- When the surface is hot, use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to pour batter onto the griddle. Immediately sprinkle a handful of fresh blueberries onto each pancake.
- Cook until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look dry, approximately 2-3 minutes. The bottom should be golden brown.
- Carefully flip the pancake and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to a warm plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them soft and warm.
- Repeat the process with remaining batter, adjusting heat as needed to prevent burning.
- Serve hot with additional fresh blueberries, maple syrup, whipped cream, or your favorite pancake toppings.
Tips
- • The secret to ultra-fluffy pancakes is ALL in the mixing technique! Gently fold your wet and dry ingredients and don't overmix - a few small lumps are your friend. • Let your batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking. This allows the flour to absorb the liquid, creating an incredibly light texture. • Use a non-stick griddle or skillet and keep the heat at medium. Too hot, and you'll burn the outside while leaving the inside raw. • Fresh blueberries are key - they burst with flavor and create beautiful pockets of fruity goodness in each pancake. • Keep cooked pancakes warm by covering them with a clean kitchen towel while you finish the batch. • For extra indulgence, try topping with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of pure maple syrup!
