Using a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar together. Stir and set aside.

Using a separate bowl, mix together the peanut butter, egg, milk, heavy cream, and vanilla. Just whisk for about 1-minute.

Carefully and slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk until there are no lumps which will take 1-2 minutes.

Then gently whisk or fold in blueberries.

Over medium-high heat, scoop about â…“ cup (80ml) of batter into a greased non-stick skillet for each pancake. You can make them bigger or smaller, depending on your preferences.

Once you notice tiny bubbles forming on the surface, it's time to flip them. The pancakes should be golden brown when done. Continue cooking the pancakes until you run out of batter.

Expert tips for success
- It's very tempting to overmix the batter by using an electric mixer, but it will significantly effect the end result. If they ended up tough, thin, or even rubbery, it's probably due to overmixing. Use just a whisk and whisk until the ingredients are combined and no lumps remain.
- When you make pancakes one of the most important things to keep in mind is the temperature of the pan. Obviously, if it's too hot, they will end up burnt. Or alternately, if the temperature is too low, the pancakes won't rise properly. Always try to use medium-high heat. If you notice they are cooking too fast or too slow, adjust the temperature a little bit.
- Don't flip them too soon or they will tear. When bubbles are forming on the surface you are safe to flip them.

Storage
It's best when you eat them freshly cooked. However, if you want to save the leftovers, then place them in an airtight container and keep them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. They will dry out the longer they are stored though.
Freezing instructions
The best way to freeze them is by flash freezing. Place them in the freezer on a baking sheet for 1 hour. Once they are solid, you can wrap them up and place them in a freezer-safe container.
To thaw, reheat them in the microwave for 20-30 seconds at a time until they are hot all the way through. Then serve.

Just discovered your website. I have already made the chocolate banana muffin and oh my gosh it's so good! We wanted to try this but we have dairy allergy. Can we sub almond milk for heavy cream as well?
Sabine
Thank you so much! They are one of our favorites too. Yes, that is possible. For every 1 cup of heavy cream, mix 2/3 cups of almond milk with 1/3 cup of canola oil. So the ratio is 2:1 almond:oil. However, the texture and taste will differ from the original recipe and I didn’t test it myself. I hope that helps!

Although, I'm not a fan of making pancakes because they are so time-consuming I love eating them. Especially these ones. The combination of peanut butter and blueberries is awesome. Thank you!
