AMERICAN BLUEBERRY PANCAKES

🕒 Prep Time: 10 min

🍳 Cook Time: 20 min
🍰 Yields: About 15 pancakes

Ingredients

  • 200 g fresh blueberries
  • 180 g all-purpose flour
  • 60 g sugar
  • 1 packet vanilla sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 2 small eggs
  • 470 ml buttermilk
  • 20 g melted butter

Instructions

1. Mix Dry Ingredients

  • In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda.

2. Mix Wet Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, beat eggs well.
  • Add buttermilk and 2 tbsp melted butter, mix thoroughly.

3. Combine Batter

  • Pour wet mixture over dry ingredients.
  • Stir gently just until flour disappears—some lumps are fine.

4. Cook Pancakes

  • Heat a pan well and test by sprinkling water; if it sizzles, pan is ready.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low (pancakes cook best on moderate heat).
  • Brush the pan with melted butter.
  • Pour about 1 tbsp batter per pancake, shaping circles with the back of the spoon.
  • Sprinkle blueberries on top and gently press them into the batter.
  • Cook about 2 minutes until edges look dry, then flip and cook 2 more minutes.
  • Repeat until all batter is used.
  • Clean pan with paper towel and re-butter between batches.

5. Serve

  • Serve immediately, dusted with sugar and drizzled with honey or maple syrup if desired.
  • Arrange pancakes with the first-cooked (golden) side facing up for the prettiest presentation.

💡 Tips

  • For a smoother look, blueberries can be mixed directly into the batter but pancakes won’t have the golden “face.”
  • Cooking on medium-low heat prevents burning and ensures fluffy pancakes.
  • Wiping and re-buttering the pan between batches keeps pancakes from sticking and browning evenly.

🎉 Perfect For

  • Kid-friendly breakfasts
  • Weekend brunches
  • Sweet, fruity comfort food
