1. Healthy Blueberry Pancakes
By Zondra Wilson, Blu Skin Care
Ingredients
- 1½ cups white whole-wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1½ cups buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh (or frozen) blueberries
Instructions
- Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk in egg, buttermilk, oil, sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl. Make a hole in the center of the dry ingredients, add the wet ingredients and whisk just until combined. Stir in blueberries. Be careful not to over-mix. It can make pancakes tough.
- Let the batter sit, without stirring, for about 10 minutes. This makes for a fluffier pancake.
- Coat a large nonstick skillet or griddle with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Without stirring the batter, measure out pancakes using about ¼ cup batter per pancake and pour into the pan. Cook until the edges are dry and you see bubbles on the surface, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
