Ingredients for Blueberry Pancakes

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

  • All-Purpose Flour: Creates the base of the pancakes for a fluffy texture.
  • Granulated Sugar: Adds sweetness to the pancakes, balancing the tartness of the blueberries.
  • Baking Powder: Acts as a leavening agent for those perfectly fluffy pancakes.
  • Salt: Enhances the flavors of the pancakes.
  • Milk: Helps bind the ingredients together and create a creamy batter. You can use dairy or non-dairy milk.
  • Egg: Provides structure to the pancake, keeping them light and airy.
  • Vanilla Extract: Adds a touch of flavor to the batter.
  • Fresh Blueberries: The star of the show! Adds natural sweetness and a pop of color.

How to Make Blueberry Pancakes

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure fluffy pancakes.
  4. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  5. Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or non-stick spray.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
  7. Repeat with the remaining batter, keeping the pancakes warm in a low oven if desired.
  8. Serve warm with syrup, fresh blueberries, and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.

Tips for Making Blueberry Pancakes

  • Don’t Overmix: Mix the batter until just combined. Overmixing can make the pancakes tough.
  • Use Fresh Blueberries: Fresh blueberries give a much better flavor compared to frozen ones. If using frozen, don’t thaw them before adding to the batter.
  • Adjust Heat as Needed: If pancakes are browning too quickly, lower the heat to ensure they cook through without burning.

Make-Ahead Instructions

  • Make the batter ahead of time (up to 24 hours in advance) and store it in the refrigerator. Stir in more blueberries just before cooking.
  • You can also cook the pancakes ahead of time; let them cool completely and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Storing Leftovers

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on a skillet before serving.

Freezing Blueberry Pancakes

  • Allow cooked pancakes to cool completely before stacking them with parchment paper in between each pancake.
  • Place the stack into a freezer bag or airtight container and freeze for up to 2 months.

Reheating Blueberry Pancakes

  • Reheat pancakes in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds, or until warmed through.
  • Alternatively, heat in a skillet over low heat until warmed on both sides.
