Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 1.25 cups Buttermilk
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 medium Apple, peeled and grated
• 0.75 cups Fresh blueberries
• 0 as needed Non-stick cooking spray or butter for greasing
• 0 as needed Maple syrup (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg. Whisk in the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 4

Fold in the grated apple and blueberries gently to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.

Step 5

Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 6

Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Be sure to leave space between the pancakes for easy flipping.

Step 7

Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired. Enjoy your Light Apple Blueberry Pancakes!
