Equipment

  • 1 Mixing bowl
  • 1 Skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups flour
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 Tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup chopped strawberries
  • vegetable oil

Instructions

  • In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
    1 ½ cups flour, 1 ½ Tablespoons sugar, 1 Tablespoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt
  • Add the melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla, and egg to the bowl and whisk to make a smooth, thick batter.
    3 Tablespoons melted butter, 1 cup buttermilk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 egg
  • Let the batter sit for about 10 minutes to rest. Resting the batter will allow the flour to absorb some of the liquids, making the flour more tender. This will give you fluffier, softer pancakes.
  • Stir in the chopped strawberries. Just one or two stirs will do, you don’t want to over mix or the batter will start to turn pink.
    1 cup chopped strawberries
  • Brush about a teaspoon of vegetable oil across the bottom of a medium sized skillet and heat over medium heat.

  • Scoop ½ cup of the strawberry pancake batter into the skillet to form a pancake.
  • Cook the strawberry pancake for about 3 minutes. You will start to see small bubbles pop up across the top of the pancake. When you see the bubbles burst, it is time to flip the pancake.
  • Cook the pancake for another 2 minutes. Then, remove it from the pan and enjoy while warm!
  • Repeat the cooking process with the remaining pancake batter.

Notes

  • You can cook multiple pancakes at once if you have a large, flat top griddle or extra large pan. Scoop one pancake into the pan, wait about 15 seconds for it to spread and then scoop the next portion of the batter into the pan. Try to leave about 1 inch of space between the pancakes. 
  • Keep the pancakes warm in a 200 degree oven while you cook all the batter. This will let you serve them all at once.
