Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 ยฝ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 ยฝ teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 4 Tablespoons melted butter (slightly cooled)
Add-ins and for Cooking
- 2 cups fresh blueberries (can also use frozen, do not thaw)
- More butter for pan greasing
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt until well combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients: To the dry mixture, add the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter. Whisk gently just until the ingredients are combined; avoid over-mixing to keep the batter tender.
- Preheat Skillet: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add a small amount of butter to the skillet center to help achieve a golden-brown crust on the pancakes.
- Cook Pancakes: Scoop about 1/3 cup of batter into the skillet and gently spread it into a circle. Place a few blueberries evenly over the top of each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and edges begin to set, then flip. Cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until fluffy and cooked through.
- Serve: Serve the blueberry pancakes warm, topped with butter and maple syrup. Enjoy this delicious breakfast treat!
Notes
- Do not over-mix the batter to keep pancakes light and fluffy.
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries; if using frozen, do not thaw before adding to batter.
- Adjust heat as needed to avoid burning; medium-low heat prevents over-browning while allowing pancakes to cook through.
- Butter or cooking spray can be used to grease the pan for a better crust and to prevent sticking.
- Pancakes can be kept warm in a low oven while cooking the remaining batter.
