Ingredient:

  • 1 ¾ cups plus 1 teaspoon white whole wheat flour or regular whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup maple syrup or honey
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 eggs, preferably at room temperature
  • ⅔ cup buttermilk*
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups blueberries, fresh (1 ½ pints) or frozen, divided
  • 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar (also called raw sugar), for sprinkling on top
  • Optional serving suggestions: Vanilla ice cream, Greek yogurt or whipped cream
