Fluffy Blueberry-Kefir Pancakes
These pancakes combine white whole-wheat flour with vanilla kefir and fresh blueberries to create a fluffy texture with a subtle tang. The batter includes warm water, avocado oil, and baking powder, resulting in light, soft pancakes with bursts of juicy blueberries. Vanilla extract adds a gentle flavor note that complements the fruit and tangy kefir. Cooking them on a medium-heated griddle produces a golden exterior while maintaining softness inside.

Ingredients
- 1 cup white whole-wheat flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons water warm
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup vanilla kefir
- 2/3 cup blueberries fresh
Instructions
- Heat your griddle up to medium heat (about 300℉) and spray with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, and salt. In a separate, large bowl, whisk the water, oil, and baking powder until frothy. Add the vanilla and kefir, and whisk until combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones, and whisk until just a few small lumps remain. Fold in the blueberries.
- Use a 1/4 cup measure to spoon batter onto the griddle. Spread the batter out slightly. If they're too large, they're hard to flip.
- Cook until the edges are set, the underside is dark brown, and bubbles form on the top, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and repeat, allowing the pancakes to rise naturally (don't press down with the spatula). Serve warm.
