Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, you can use frozen blueberries. Add them straight from the freezer without thawing to prevent the batter from turning blue. Cooking time may be slightly longer.
Place a wire rack on a baking sheet in a 200°F oven and arrange cooked pancakes on the rack. This keeps them warm and prevents sogginess.
Berries often sink if the batter is too thin or if they aren't coated. Toss the blueberries in a tablespoon of flour before folding them into the batter to help distribute them evenly.
Absolutely. Prepare the batter the night before, cover tightly, and refrigerate. The pancakes may be slightly less fluffy, but still delicious. Give the batter a gentle stir before using.
Classic maple syrup, whipped cream, fresh blueberries, lemon zest, a dusting of powdered sugar, or a spoonful of blueberry jam all pair wonderfully.
