Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted, for greasing casserole dish
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 tsp flour for coating blueberries
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉.
  • Whisk together 2 cups of flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
  • Melt 1/4 cup of butter in microwave without overheating. Let cool slightly before using.
  • Make a well in the flour mixture. Add melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla. Mix using a whisk until all clumps are gone.
  • Place 2 tbsp butter into a 9x13 casserole dish. Place casserole dish inside oven as the oven preheats to melt the butter. Butter should melt in a few minutes.
  • While the butter is melting, lightly toss the blueberries with 1 tsp of flour, making sure all of the berries are coated with the flour.
  • Once the butter in the casserole dish is melted, bring it out of the oven, and brush melted butter all over the bottom and the sides of the dish. Pour pancake batter into the casserole dish.
  • Sprinkle the flour-coated blueberries all over the top of the pancake batter, evenly distributing the berries.
  • Place the casserole dish back in and bake for 30 minutes. (see Note 1)
  • Remove from oven. Optional: sprinkle the top with powdered sugar. Cut into smaller pieces and serve with your favorite syrup. Enjoy!

Notes

Note 1: You may need a longer cook time if using a glass baking dish. When the 30 minute mark is up, remove pancake from oven and insert a toothpick in the center to check for doneness. If toothpick comes out clean, pancake casserole is done. If not, bake for a few minutes longer and repeat toothpick test.
