👨🍳 Instructions
Mix Dry
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, 2 Tbsp sugar, 2 ½ tsp baking powder, ½ tsp baking soda, and ½ tsp salt.
Mix Wet
In another bowl, whisk 2 large eggs, 1 ¾ cups buttermilk, 4 Tbsp melted butter, and 1 tsp vanilla.
Combine
Pour wet mixture into dry. Gently fold until just combined — a few lumps are perfect. Don't overmix or pancakes will get dense.
Add Blueberries
Toss 2 cups blueberries with 1 tsp flour (prevents sinking), then gently fold into batter with 1 tsp lemon zest. It'll look thick — that's what you want.
Cook
Heat a buttered griddle or nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop ¼ cup batter per pancake.
Cook until bubbles form on top and edges look set (2-3 minutes).
Flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Serve
Stack high and top with: Real maple syrup or blueberry compote, a pat of butter, and a sprinkle of powdered sugar or crushed nuts.
🧈 Blueberry Compote (Optional but Epic)
In a small saucepan: 1 cup blueberries, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, 2 Tbsp maple syrup or sugar. Simmer 5-7 minutes until thick and glossy. Spoon over pancakes.
📝 Notes
💪 Phsyco Tips
- For extra fluff: let the batter rest 10 minutes before cooking — the baking powder activates.
- For crispy edges: cook in butter + a drizzle of neutral oil.
- For high-protein upgrade: swap ½ cup flour for vanilla protein powder or oat flour.
