Ingredients

  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons Cane sugar to sweeten your batter just right
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder to help those pancakes rise
  • ½ teaspoon Baking soda for extra fluffiness
  • ½ teaspoon Cinnamon to add a warm, comforting flavor
  • ½ teaspoon Sea salt a heaping amount to balance the sweetness
  • 1 large Egg for binding the ingredients
  • 1 cup Milk plus 3 tablespoons for a creamy batter
  • 3 tablespoons Milk to add to 1 cup for a creamy batter
  • ½ cup Plain whole milk Greek yogurt adding moisture and richness
  • 2 tablespoons Avocado oil or melted butter plus more for brushing the pan
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract for that delightful aroma
  • 2 cups Blueberries fresh or thawed frozen
  • Maple syrup for serving

Instructions

Prepare the Batter

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cane sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and sea salt.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then add the milk, Greek yogurt, avocado oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

Combine Ingredients

  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine!

Add Blueberries

  • Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Cook Pancakes

  • Preheat your griddle or frying pan over medium heat and brush it lightly with avocado oil or melted butter to prevent sticking.
  • Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Serve

  • Remove the pancakes from the pan and stack them on a plate. Drizzle with maple syrup and top with additional blueberries if desired. Serve warm for the best experience!

  • Whisk
  • Griddle or frying pan
  • Spatula
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons

Notes

  • Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking for fluffier pancakes.
  • Use a ladle to portion the batter evenly for consistent pancake sizes.
  • If using frozen blueberries, thaw and drain them to avoid excess moisture.
  • Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven (around 200°F) while cooking the rest.
  • Store leftover pancakes in the fridge up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
