Instructions

Break the egg into a large mixing bowl. Add the flour, milk, and a sprinkle of sea salt.

Whisk everything together until you have a smooth batter. Gently fold in the blueberries.

Heat half a tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Tilt the pan slightly to coat the bottom evenly with oil.

Scoop portions of batter into the pan, leaving space between them for spreading. Each scoop will make one pancake, so you might need to cook in batches.

Cook for one to two minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the bottoms are golden brown. Carefully flip the pancakes over.

Once golden on both sides, transfer the pancakes to a plate.

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan if needed between batches.

Serve the pancakes warm, topped with a dollop of yogurt and extra fresh berries, if desired.
