A quick and easy recipe for soft, fluffy pancakes with fresh berries that make a perfect breakfast treat for busy mornings or relaxed weekends.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Β½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 3 Β½ teaspoons baking powder
  • Β½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 ΒΌ cups (300ml) milk (whole milk preferred, dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons (about 42g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (about 150g) fresh berries (blueberries, sliced strawberries, or raspberries)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until combined.
  2. In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and gently fold with a spatula just until combined; a few lumps are okay.
  4. Carefully fold in fresh berries to keep them whole and juicy.
  5. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
  6. Pour about β…“ cup batter per pancake onto the pan. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Flip carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Transfer cooked pancakes to a warm oven (200Β°F/95Β°C) to keep warm while finishing the batch.
  9. Serve immediately with extra fresh berries, maple syrup, or favorite toppings.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes light and fluffy. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes if possible. Use fresh baking powder for best rise. Fold berries gently to avoid crushing. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200Β°F oven.
