Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Can be substituted with a gluten-free blend.

  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder Ensure it's fresh for the best results.
  • 1 pinch Salt Use sea salt or kosher salt for a more gourmet touch.
  • 1 cup Milk Almond milk is a great dairy-free substitute.
  • 1 large Egg Replace with 1/4 cup applesauce for vegan options.
  • 3 tablespoons Melted Butter Swap in coconut oil for a dairy-free treat.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Zest Using a fresh lemon elevates the flavor.
  • 1 cup Blueberries Toss frozen blueberries with flour to prevent sinking.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until evenly blended. Zest a fresh lemon into the mixture.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and the lemon zest. Continue whisking until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and gently stir using a spatula until just combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
  4. Carefully fold in blueberries into the batter.
  5. Preheat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it. Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of batter onto the skillet.
  6. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Transfer cooked pancake bites to a serving plate and serve warm with lemon juice or maple syrup.
