Batter

Method

Batter

  1. 1

    Mix dry ingredients

    In a large bowl whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.

  2. 2

    Combine wet ingredients

    In a separate bowl or large measuring cup whisk the buttermilk, whole milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until homogenous.

  3. 3

    Make the batter

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy — do not overmix or it will make tough pancakes. If the batter seems very thick, add up to 1–2 tablespoons additional milk to reach a pourable but thick consistency.

  4. 4

    Rest the batter

    Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes at room temperature. This hydrates the flour and helps produce tender pancakes.

Blueberries & Cooking

  1. 5

    Preheat skillet or griddle

    Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat (about 350°F / 175°C). Lightly grease with a little butter or neutral oil and wipe excess with a paper towel so the surface is lightly coated.

  2. 6

    Cook pancakes

    For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface leaving space between pancakes. Immediately scatter 10–15 fresh blueberries evenly onto each pancake (or fold a few into the batter for more inside blueberries). Cook until the edges look set and bubbles form and begin to pop on the surface, about 2–3 minutes.

  3. 7

    Flip and finish

    Carefully flip each pancake with a spatula and cook the second side until golden brown and cooked through, about 1–2 minutes more. Adjust heat as needed so pancakes brown but do not burn.

  4. 8

    Keep warm

    Transfer finished pancakes to a baking sheet and keep warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven while you cook the remaining batter, or place them under a tent of foil.

  5. 9

    Serve

    Stack pancakes, top with extra fresh blueberries if desired, dust with powdered sugar (optional), and drizzle with maple syrup to taste. Serve immediately.
