Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- Nonstick cooking spray or additional butter for greasing the baking dish
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening agents.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the pancakes fluffy.
- Fold in Blueberries: Carefully fold in the blueberries, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter without breaking them, especially if using frozen berries.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes or until the top turns golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pancakes to cool slightly before slicing into squares. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, powdered sugar, or yogurt.
Notes
- Do not thaw frozen blueberries before mixing to avoid discoloring the batter.
- Optional: Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or lemon zest to the batter for extra flavor.
- Perfect served with maple syrup, powdered sugar, or a dollop of yogurt for added taste.
