Course: Breakfast, brunch
Cuisine: American
Servings: 12 pancakes
- 2 ¼ cups flour all purpose, or gluten-free 1-to-1 blend
- 1 Tbsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- ½ tsp. salt
- ¼ cup honey or sugar
- 2 eggs whisked
- 1 ¾ cups milk regular or oat
- 1 ½ tsp. vanilla
- 1 ½ cups blueberries fresh
- 4 Tbsp. butter divided
Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to a large bowl. Whisk until well combined.
2 ¼ cups flour, 1 Tbsp. baking powder, 1 tsp. baking soda, ½ tsp. salt
Mix in honey, eggs, milk, and vanilla. Stir together until just combined.
¼ cup honey, 2 eggs, 1 ¾ cups milk, 1 ½ tsp. vanilla
Add blueberries and gently fold the batter until they are well mixed, being careful not to burst the berries while stirring.
1 ½ cups blueberries
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and wait for it to completely melt. Once the skillet is heated, scoop out ⅓ cup of the pancake batter and slowly pour it into the skillet, keeping the measuring scoop centered over the pancake. Repeat this with 2 more pancakes evenly spaced around the skillet.
4 Tbsp. butter
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes per side, flipping once the batter begins to bubble all over and the underside is golden brown.
Store cooked pancakes in a 170°F oven while you continue to cook the remaining pancake batter in the rest of the butter.
Serve pancakes with additional butter, pure maple syrup, and fresh fruit, if desired. Enjoy!
4 Tbsp. butter
- Frozen blueberries may be used if they are thawed and fully dried before adding to the batter.
- Toss blueberries in a bit of flour to stop them from sinking to the bottom.
Meal Prep and Storage
- To Prep-Ahead: The dry mix may be whisked together ahead of time, but wait to prepare the batter until ready to cook the pancakes.
- To Store: Cooked pancakes can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container or Ziploc bag, for up to three days, to preserve freshness.
- To Freeze: Store leftover pancakes in a freezer-safe, airtight container or Ziploc bag for up to 2-3 months. Layer sheets of parchment or wax paper between individual pancakes, to make for easier separation once frozen.
- To Reheat: Warm leftovers from thawed or frozen in the microwave, skillet, or in a toaster oven set to low heat, until just heated through. To reheat a large batch, arrange them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, with foil layered on top. Warm them in a 350°F oven, and serve immediately.
