Description

An easy and hands-off breakfast recipe! Cook up an entire batch of blueberry almond pancakes in a single skillet for a cozy, deep-dish twist on a classic morning favorite.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, fluffed, spooned, leveled
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • Zest from ½ a lemon
  • ¾ cup Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 cup blueberries (reserve ¼ cup for topping; ensure they are as dry as possible)
  • ¼ cup sliced almonds


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9-inch cast iron skillet with oil and spread it evenly with a paper towel. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and lemon zest.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, egg, and almond extract until smooth.
  4. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until fully incorporated.
  5. Fold in ¾ cup of the blueberries and all of the sliced almonds.
  6. Scrape the batter into the prepared skillet and spread evenly. Scatter the remaining ¼ cup blueberries over the top.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool slightly, then slice and serve with syrup and extra blueberries if desired.

Notes

  • Dry the blueberries well to avoid excess moisture in the batter.
  • Some blueberries will sink during baking, but they add a wonderful texture to the base.
  • This deep-dish method makes breakfast easy—no flipping required!
