Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar together in a bowl.

  2. 2

    In another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter.

  3. 3

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Stir just until combined, leaving some lumps.

  4. 4

    Gently fold in the huckleberries with a spoon or spatula.

  5. 5

    Heat a griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface.

  6. 6

    Pour the batter in 1/4-cup portions onto the griddle.

  7. 7

    Cook until bubbles form on top. Flip and cook 1-2 minutes more until golden.

  8. 8

    Serve the pancakes warm with butter and syrup.

Chef's tips

Gently mix in the huckleberries at the end so they do not bleed color. Keep the griddle at medium heat so the centers cook through before the outsides burn.

Storage

Refrigerate cooked pancakes up to 2 days.

Reheating

Reheat in a toaster or on a griddle over low heat.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • โ€ขMixing the batter too much, which makes the pancakes dense and tough.
  • โ€ขUsing frozen berries without draining them first, which makes the batter purple and watery.

Serving suggestions

Serve warm with butter and warm huckleberry syrup.Dust the tops with powdered sugar.
