Preheat oven to 375°F.
Place a medium cast iron skillet in the oven and let it preheat for about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the blueberries with 2 Tbsp of flour until well-coated; set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix together the remaining flour with the lemon zest, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda; set aside.
In another small bowl, melt 2 Tbsp of the butter and whisk together with the remaining liquid ingredients (buttermilk, milk, egg and vanilla). Add the liquid ingredients to the bowl with the dry ingredients; stir until just incorporated. (Tip: Take care not to overstir the batter.)
Fold half of the blueberries into the batter.
Remove the skillet from the oven and add the remaining 1 Tbsp of butter; brush evenly around bottom of skillet.
Using a spatula, spread the pancake batter evenly into the skillet. Gently press remaining half of the blueberries into the top of the batter.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until light golden brown.
Allow pancake to cool slightly; dust with powdered sugar and top with whipped cream before serving.
