How to Serve Blueberry Pancakes

Serve your blueberry pancakes warm, stacked high on a plate. Drizzle them with maple syrup and add a pat of butter on top if you like. You can also sprinkle some extra blueberries or nuts for a nice touch!

How to Store Blueberry Pancakes

If you have leftover pancakes, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, pop them in the microwave for a few seconds or warm them in a skillet again.

Tips to Make Blueberry Pancakes

  • Make sure not to overmix the batter; it’s okay if it’s a little lumpy.
  • Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor, but frozen ones work too!
  • If you like them sweeter, try adding a bit more sugar or some vanilla extract to the batter.

Variation

You can add other fruits like sliced bananas or strawberries to mix it up. For a healthier twist, try using whole wheat flour instead of regular flour!

FAQs

1. Can I make blueberry pancakes ahead of time?
Yes! You can make the batter the night before and keep it in the fridge. Just give it a gentle stir before cooking.

2. What can I substitute for milk?
You can use almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk as a substitute. They work great and will still taste good!

3. How do I know when the pancakes are done?
Look for bubbles forming on the surface, and when they burst, that’s a good sign to flip them. They should be golden brown on both sides!
