Delight in fluffy, sweet strawberry pancakes made from simple ingredients like fresh strawberries, flour, eggs, and milk. Perfect for a comforting breakfast or brunch, these pancakes are easy to prepare and bursting with fresh fruit flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

Pancake Batter

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, for sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined. In another bowl, beat the eggs and milk together. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined to form a smooth batter. Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes fluffy.
  2. Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold the chopped fresh strawberries into the batter, distributing them evenly without crushing.
  3. Heat the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to set, then carefully flip and cook an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Serve Warm: Remove from heat and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, extra strawberries, or whipped cream.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Do not overmix the batter to ensure tender pancakes.
  • If you prefer, substitute milk with a plant-based alternative to make it dairy-free.
  • Adjust cooking heat as needed to prevent burning while ensuring the pancakes are cooked through.
  • Optional: Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter for extra flavor.
