- Cuisine: American
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 3/4 cup Milk
- 1 Egg
- 2 tablespoons Melted Butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Zest
- 1 cup Fresh Blueberries
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) if using a mini muffin pan. Lightly grease a 24-cup mini muffin pan with butter or cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, fresh lemon juice, and fresh lemon zest until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry. With a rubber spatula, gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix! Lumps are good; overmixing makes tough pancake bites.
- Gently fold in the fresh blueberries. If using frozen, toss them in a teaspoon of flour first to prevent sinking.
- Using a small spoon or cookie scoop, fill each well of your prepared mini muffin pan about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for a minute, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm with your favorite toppings!

Keywords: Avoid overmixing the batter for tender pancake bites. Always use fresh lemon zest and juice for the best flavor. A small cookie scoop helps create evenly sized bites, and tossing blueberries in flour prevents them from sinking.
