Description
Delicious pancakes filled with fresh strawberries and topped with whipped cream, perfect for breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons caster sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1/4 cup caster sugar (for glaze)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (for whipped cream)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the wheat flour, caster sugar, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, milk, egg, melted butter, and pure vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.
- In a bowl, combine sliced strawberries and caster sugar. Let sit for 15 minutes to allow juices to release. Add lemon juice if desired.
- Beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
- Stack the pancakes on a plate, spoon the strawberry glaze over the top, and add whipped cream. Serve warm with extra strawberries.
Notes
Make sure not to overmix the batter for fluffy pancakes. You can swap strawberries for other fruits for different flavors.
