Gather Your Ingredients You'll need: – 1 cup all-purpose flour – 1 tbsp sugar – 1 tsp baking powder – ½ tsp baking soda – ¼ tsp salt
– ¾ cup buttermilk (or milk with a splash of vinegar) – 1 egg – 2 tbsp melted butter – 1 tsp vanilla extract – ½ cup chopped fresh strawberries
Prepare the Batter In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla. Gradually combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just mixed.
Heat the Pan or Griddle Preheat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. This prevents sticking and gives the pancakes a golden-brown finish.
Cook the Pancakes Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden.
Add Toppings For extra flavor, top your pancakes with sliced strawberries, maple syrup, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar. You can also drizzle melted chocolate or honey for a richer taste.
Serve and Enjoy! Stack your warm, fluffy strawberry pancakes on a plate and enjoy with a cup of coffee or fresh juice. These pancakes are a delightful way to start the day!
