Tips
- For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
- Use frozen blueberries if fresh aren't available—they won't sink to the bottom as much.
- Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while you finish the batch.
Storage
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster or skillet for best results.
Serving Suggestions
- Top with a drizzle of pure maple syrup and a pat of butter.
- Whipped cream and a sprinkle of powdered sugar for a treat.
- Pair with crispy bacon or a side of sausage for a hearty breakfast.
FAQ
Can I use regular milk instead of buttermilk?
Yes, mix 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar with enough milk to make 1 1/4 cups and let it sit for 5 minutes.
How do I prevent the blueberries from sinking?
Gently fold the blueberries into the batter and don't overmix. Using frozen blueberries can also help.
