Ingredients

  • Flour: Use all-purpose flour for the best results.
  • Sugar: I like to use cane sugar for a little sweetness, granulated will work fine too.
  • Baking powder: For light and fluffy blueberry pancakes!
  • Milk: You can use any milk you like in this recipe; 1 or 2% dairy or a plant based milk like oat or almond.
  • Butter: I like to use butter so that the pancakes are nice and moist.
  • Eggs: To bind the ingredients together.
  • Blueberries: Packed full of vitamins and antioxidants, they are a tasty way to get the goodness in!

How to make blueberry pancakes

  1. Add the cleaned and dried blueberries on top.
  2. Carefully fold the blueberries in, being careful not to pop them so the color of the batter doesn’t change.
Whisked egg, milk, and butter in a bowl with dry ingredients added on top.

Tips for making the best pancakes

  1. Use room temperature eggs and milk if possible. Because we’re using melted butter with the wet ingredients, it can solidify as soon as it hits colder ingredients, which makes it harder to combine everything well.
  2. Make sure the pan is heated through and hot before adding the first pancakes. But make sure it’s not so hot that it burns the pancakes. It shouldn’t be smoking. To test the temperature of the pan you can make a test baby pancake first to check that it is at the right temperature.
  3. Use ⅓ measuring cup for evenly round pancakes. This helps to make sure the homemade blueberry pancakes are all even so they stack nicely and evenly. It also helps you control the pouring situation for the pancakes. You can also use an ice cream scoop.
  4. Kids love these pancakes! Be sure to get my other top recipes for kids’ breakfasts for more inspiration!

Frequently asked questions

Can I use frozen blueberries?

Yes, these blueberry pancakes work really well with frozen blueberries. There’s no need to thaw the blueberries in advance. Doing so may turn the whole dish to a purple color as the thawed blueberries mix with the liquid.

Can you make these blueberry pancakes in advance?

These pancakes are best enjoyed as soon as they are made, but the will keep in an airtight container for 2 to 3 days and you can also freeze them. You can then reheat them in the oven or microwave to serve warm.

Ingredients
  

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another larger bowl, whisk the egg until blended. Whisk in the milk and melted butter, then whisk in the dry mixture until well combined. Add the blueberries and stir until evenly distributed. The batter may be lumpy but that’s ok.
  • Heat a large nonstick pan or griddle over medium heat. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Using a ⅓-cup measuring cup, pour 3-4 circles of batter into the pan or griddle. Cook until the pancakes are puffed on top and golden brown on the bottom, 2-3 minutes. Then flip and cook on the other side until risen and cooked through, 1-2 minutes more. Makes 8 pancakes.
  • Serve with butter, maple syrup, and fresh fruit, if desired.

Notes

Recipe Video: The video here is from the original recipe using yogurt and oats. This is still a good recipe and you can find it in the notes below!
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 3-4 days in the fridge.
Freezing Instructions: Cool the pancakes, then place them between layers of wax paper, then place in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, place in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or in the oven at 350ºF until they’re hot and heated through, about 5-7 minutes.
This recipe has been updated in July 2025, but if you like the original version, you can still find it here:
1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
⅔ cup rolled oats
2 tablespoons cane sugar
1 ¼ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup greek yogurt
1 cup milk
4 tablespoons coconut oil melted plus more for the pan
2 large eggs
¾ cup blueberries
Maple syrup for serving
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In another large bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: Greek yogurt, milk, melted coconut oil and eggs.
Transfer the dry ingredients over the wet ingredients and stir using a rubber spatula just until moist. Gently fold in the blueberries.
Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Melt some butter in the pan. Working in batches, scoop ⅓ cup of the batter onto the hot griddle. Cook until the edges firm up and you can slide spatula under the pancake, about 3-4 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the pancake is cooked through. Repeat for the remaining batter. Recipe yields about 12 pancakes.
Serve immediately with maple syrup, if desired
