Ingredients for Strawberry Pancakes

Here’s everything you’ll need to Eggnog Pancakes:

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 ¼ cups milk
• 1 large egg
• 3 tablespoons melted butter plus extra for cooking
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh strawberries washed, dried, and chopped into small pieces

Optional toppings:

• Maple syrup
• Whipped cream
• Extra sliced strawberries
• Powdered sugar

How to Make Strawberry Pancakes

Step One

First, in a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk everything together well so that the baking powder spreads evenly throughout the flour. This helps the pancakes rise and become fluffy when cooking.

Step Two

In a separate medium bowl, crack the egg and whisk it gently. Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the egg. Mix everything together until it looks smooth and well blended. Make sure the butter is not too hot when you add it, or it could cook the egg.

Step Three

Now slowly pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently using a spoon or whisk. Do not overmix the batter. It is okay if there are a few small lumps. Overmixing can make pancakes tough instead of soft and fluffy.

Step Four

Next, carefully fold in the chopped strawberries. Stir slowly so the strawberry pieces are spread evenly throughout the batter. This makes sure every pancake gets some delicious fruit inside. then Heat your non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter and let it melt, coating the surface. When the pan is warm, pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake. Leave space between them so they don’t stick together.

Step Five

Cook the pancakes for about 2–3 minutes, or until you see small bubbles forming on the surface. This means they are ready to flip. Carefully turn each pancake over with a spatula and cook for another 2–3 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked inside.

Step Six

Remove the pancakes from the pan and place them on a plate. Continue cooking until all the batter is used. Serve warm with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
