Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/4 cups whole buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted, plus more for cooking and serving
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups blueberries, plus more for garnish

Directions

Step 1 -Combine the flour, the granulated sugar, the baking powder, the baking soda, and the salt in a large bowl.

Step 2 -In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and the eggs.

Step 4 -Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat and brush it with the extra butter.

Step 5 -Pour about 1/3 cup of the batter onto the pan per pancake, spacing each pancake about 2-inches apart.

Step 6 -Top each pancake with the blueberries and allow them to cook until bubbles appear on the surface, about 2-5 minutes.
