Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup milk (any kind)
2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 cup fresh blueberries
Cooking spray or butter for greasing
Directions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, Greek yogurt, milk, melted butter, and lemon zest until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula until just combined. A few lumps are okay; do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
- Heat a lightly greased mini muffin tin or a non-stick pan with small indentations over medium heat. Alternatively, preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) for a muffin tin.
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon of batter into each indentation or mini muffin cup. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side on the stovetop, or bake for 10-12 minutes in the oven, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Transfer the cooked pancake bites to a plate. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, a sprinkle of powdered sugar, or extra fresh blueberries.
Notes
- A Family Secret: For an extra burst of lemon flavor, add a tiny splash of lemon juice to the wet ingredients. It really brightens up the whole bite and makes the blueberries sing!
- Batch Cooking Bliss: These pancake bites are fantastic for meal prep! Once cooled, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to a month. Reheat gently in the microwave or toaster oven for a quick breakfast.
- Texture Talk: Don’t overmix the batter! A few lumps are perfectly normal and actually contribute to that lovely fluffy texture. Overmixing develops the gluten too much, leading to tough pancake bites.
