Make light, airy, and fluffy strawberry pancakes that taste like strawberry shortcake. This easy recipe uses simple ingredients for a perfect weekend brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
  • Cooking spray or oil for the griddle

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. This mix creates the base for your fluffy breakfast.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a whisk until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps in the batter mean light and airy pancakes.
  4. Gently fold in the sliced fresh strawberries.
  5. Heat a griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or oil.
  6. Pour 1/3 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and bubbles appear on the surface.
  7. Flip the pancakes and cook the second side until golden.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings for a sweet strawberry breakfast.

Notes

  • For extra fluffiness, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • If you do not have buttermilk, mix 2 cups of whole milk with 2 tablespoons of white vinegar or lemon juice and let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Serve these homemade strawberry pancakes with whipped cream and a drizzle of maple syrup for an indulgent pancake recipe experience.
