Step-by-Step Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

In a separate jug, beat the egg with the milk. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gradually whisk in the milk mixture until you have a thick, smooth batter.

Gently stir in a knob of melted butter and fold in half of the blueberries, taking care not to overmix the batter.

Heat a teaspoon of sunflower oil or a small knob of butter in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat.

Drop large tablespoonfuls of batter into the pan to form pancakes about 7.5cm in diameter. You should be able to fit three or four in the pan at a time.

Cook for approximately 3 minutes until small bubbles begin to appear on the surface. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until both sides are golden brown.
