Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup whole milk

1 large egg

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Maple syrup, for serving

Whipped cream, optional

Lemon zest, for garnish

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

    Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

      Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

        Add Blueberries: Fold in the blueberries gently to avoid bursting them.

          Heat the Pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

            Cook the Pancakes: For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

              Serve and Garnish: Stack the pancakes high on a plate. Drizzle with maple syrup, add a dollop of whipped cream, and sprinkle with lemon zest for a refreshing twist before serving.
