Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
Mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix the batter. A few lumps are fine.
Gently fold in the blueberries. If using fresh blueberries, toss them with one teaspoon of flour before adding them to the batter to help prevent sinking.
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown.
Serve immediately with your preferred toppings.
Notes
For extra fluffiness, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
Use buttermilk instead of regular milk for a slightly tangier flavor.
If you prefer thicker pancakes, reduce the milk slightly or add one extra tablespoon of flour.
