Ingredients

  • Dry Ingredients:
    • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour for a heartier texture)
    • 1 tablespoon sugar (or maple syrup for natural sweetness)
    • 2 teaspoons baking powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Wet Ingredients:
    • 1 cup non-dairy milk (almond, soy, or oat)
    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fruits:
    • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (no need to thaw if using frozen)

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the non-dairy milk, oil, and vanilla extract until combined.
  3. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir gently until just combined. A few lumps are fine—avoid overmixing!
  4. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  5. Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm with maple syrup or your favorite toppings.
