Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 3/4 tsp baking powder, 1 tbsp granulated sugar, and 1/4 tsp salt until combined.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, beat 1 large egg with 3/4 cup milk and 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  3. Step 3: Fold in 1/2 cup fresh blueberries carefully to avoid crushing.
  4. Step 4: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake and cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  5. Step 5: Meanwhile, melt 2 tbsp unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tbsp pure maple syrup until smooth.
  6. Step 6: Stack the pancakes on a plate and drizzle the warm maple butter sauce generously over the top before serving.
