Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 1 cup blueberries (frozen preferred)

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until well combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  • Lightly grease the skillet and pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, 1-2 minutes more.
  • Remove pancakes from the skillet and keep warm in a low oven. Serve with syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.

Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl

Notes

  • For fluffier pancakes, let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes before cooking.
  • Experiment with different fruits like raspberries or strawberries for a fun twist.
  • Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
