How to make apple pancakes with blueberries
Now I’ll walk you through it…
Quick look at this apple pancake batter recipe
- Add apples and blueberries to pancake batter.
- Add butter to a cast iron skillet, griddle, or pan on medium heat. Once it melts, cook pancakes.
- Make all pancakes until batter is gone.
- Serve with maple syrup and strawberries.
Detailed recipe steps
- Prepare pancake batter according to store bought package instructions (for about 8-10 pancakes) in a large mixing bowl. You don’t need to add extra anything to accommodate the additional fruit in pancakes.
- Add fresh blueberries to wet ingredients in the pancake batter and mix together.
- Add grated apples to pancake batter. Mix.
- Heat a large skillet or pan or griddle to medium heat or medium high heat. Add about 1 tbsp butter to the skillet and once it melts, add apple pancake batter to the skillet, in whatever sizes you’d like. Flip pancakes once the top (wet batter) starts to bubble, and the bottom turns golden brown. Remove when cooked through and both sides are browned.
- Keep making pancakes, adding some butter to the pans in between so they cook in tasty butter and pick up color. Serve with maple syrup and fresh strawberries or other fruit as you’d like. Blueberries especially will be very hot, so use caution before eating them.
FAQs
Yes, you can but usually those have a bit more runny consistency. So use whatever Dutch baby pancake batter recipe you like, and then add grated apple to it.

Meat thermometer recommendations
Every home chef needs a reliable meat thermometer to cook food perfectly.
On Sip Bite Go, you’ll often see me using:
- Meater thermometer – a fancy wireless thermometer that connects to a phone app – gifted to me from a Traeger partnership.
- ThermoPro digital thermometer – which has a wire that connects the thermometer to a display box outside the oven/grill.
It’s like being psychic! The great thing about either of the thermometers above is that I don’t have to take the food out of the oven to know the temperature.
How to use ‘em… What I do is stick the digital thermometer in steak, pork, chicken, whatever… Then put the food in the oven, on the smoker, or grill.
While the meat cooks, it reads the temperature so I know exactly what temp meat is as it’s cooking. Without having to take it out and check. It’s really difficult to overcook food when you know exactly what temp it is inside!
