FLUFFY BLUEBERRY PANCAKES — These homemade pancakes with fresh blueberries are the best you’ll every try! Always a hit for breakfast or even dinner.
I confess, I don’t make hot breakfast all that often, but when I do, you know it’s going to be something amazing, like these Fluffy Blueberry Pancakes.
It’s hard to believe that a recipe with such a short, simple ingredient list can result in something so delicious, but trust me, these may just be the best blueberry pancakes you ever try.
If you have some fresh (or even frozen blueberries) handy, you probably have everything else you need in the pantry to make these pancakes right now.
Don’t worry if it’s not breakfast-time. These pancakes are sure to disappear quickly any time of day!
These really are best with fresh blueberries, but if you do opt for frozen, there’s no need to thaw them before mixing up the batter. Just toss them in frozen and you’re good to go.
If you’ve got a few extra minutes to spare, I highly recommend serving these pancakes with some Homemade Vanilla Syrup.
I originally shared the recipe with my eggnog pancakes, but this syrup is fantastic on just about any pancake, waffle or French toast.
A nice blueberry syrup or sauce is also a great option. But so is good old maple syrup. A dollop of whipped cream isn’t a bad choice either.
These pancakes are as good, and dare I say better, than anything you’ll get at your favorite breakfast joint. And they’re so quick and easy to make, it’s not even worth leaving the house.
If you are lucky enough to have any leftovers, freeze them and you can have pancakes whenever the craving strikes.
If you want to serve your family something extra special for breakfast, you’ve got to give these Fluffy Blueberry Pancakes a try!

Tips for Choosing and Storing Blueberries
Color: Look for blueberries that are completely blue or deep purple, with no tinges of red. That silver coating you often see on blueberries is a natural protectant–it’s a good thing!
Appearance: Blueberries should be firm and plump. Avoid berries with damaged skin. Be sure to choose ripe berries, since they don’t ripen after picking, but avoid berries that are soft, mushy or moist.
Storing: Don’t wash blueberries until you are ready to use them–the moisture will hasten spoilage. Keep unwashed blueberries in the refrigerator in a rigid, covered container. They should last at least a week, and maybe even two.

My picky son gave thumbs up to these pancakes. Next time I will try with the recommended syrup. I don’t think it makes as many pancakes as given, though. I’d say about 8-10 pancakes. Thanks for the recipe!

In your instructions, #2 indicates to gently fold melted butter into the blueberries and set aside. There are no further instructions as to what to do with the blueberries/melted butter. Should they be folded gently into the pancake batter? Also, is the flour Self Rising or All Purpose? We love blueberries and look forward to making them.

Stir the melted butter into the pancake, batter, followed by the blueberries. Then you set the batter aside for 5-10 minutes before using it. I used all-purpose flour.
