Description
Simple recipe for fluffy pancakes with fresh lemon zest and blueberries.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix. A few lumps are fine.
- Gently fold in the lemon zest and blueberries.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancakes and cook the other side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes more.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- For extra tang, substitute buttermilk for regular milk.
- If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding to the batter.
- Serve with maple syrup or powdered sugar.
