Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk and the egg. Then, whisk in the melted butter and vanilla extract until just combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Whisk until just combined. Do not overmix! A few lumps are okay.
  4. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes while you heat your griddle. This helps create fluffier pancakes.
  5. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using about 1/4 cup for each pancake.
  6. Sprinkle the blueberries onto the wet surface of each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges are golden. Flip carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup and butter.

Notes

Do Not Overmix: Lumps in the batter are a good thing! They lead to tender, fluffy pancakes.
Fresh vs. Frozen Blueberries: If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them first. Add them directly to the batter on the griddle to prevent bleeding.
Pan Temperature: Ensure your griddle is properly preheated. Too hot and they'll burn; too cool and they'll be pale and greasy.
