Step-by-Step Instructions for Blueberry Lemon Pancake Bites
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until evenly mixed.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, large eggs, melted butter, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently fold them together until just combined.
  5. Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries and lemon zest, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Spoon the batter into each muffin cup about three-quarters full.
  7. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 10-14 minutes, checking with a toothpick for doneness.
  8. Once baked, let the muffin tin cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes before removing the bites.
