Fluffy Blackberry Pancakes

Ingredients

All-purpose flour

1 cup

Baking powder

2 teaspoons

Salt

1/4 teaspoon

Sugar

2 tablespoons

Milk

1 cup

Egg

1, beaten

Vegetable oil

2 tablespoons

Vanilla extract

1 teaspoon

Fresh blackberries

1 cup, gently folded in

Butter

for greasing the skillet

Maple syrup

for serving

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well until fully combined.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; it’s okay if there are a few lumps—do not overmix.
4. Gently fold in the fresh blackberries, being careful not to break them apart.
5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter to coat the surface.
6. For each pancake, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
7. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
8. Serve the pancakes warm with a generous drizzle of maple syrup.
