Big, fluffy, and bursting with juicy blueberries, these made-from-scratch blueberry pancakes come together with pantry staples and just a touch of rest time. They’re perfect for a cozy weekend breakfast or a quick weekday treat—best served warm with butter and maple syrup.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 pancakes

Ingredients

  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1½ cups whole milk
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (plus more for serving)
  • Maple syrup, for serving
  • Butter, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center and set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg until frothy, then mix in milk and 2 tablespoons of the oil.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
  4. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  5. Preheat a griddle to medium-low (250–275°F) and grease with the remaining tablespoon of oil.
  6. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop batter onto the griddle.
  7. Cook until the bottom is golden and bubbles form and pop on the surface. Flip and cook for 1 more minute until golden and cooked through.
  8. Serve warm topped with butter, maple syrup, and additional blueberries if desired.
  9. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F oven on a parchment-lined baking sheet while cooking the remaining pancakes.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter—lumps are good and keep the pancakes tender.
  • Frozen blueberries can be used; do not thaw to prevent bleeding.
  • Add a touch of lemon zest for a bright citrus note.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
