Ingredients
Scale
Pancake Batter
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ¼ cups whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
Toppings
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup whipped cream
Instructions
- Gather Ingredients: Collect all the ingredients including flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, milk, eggs, melted butter, fresh strawberries, and whipped cream to have everything ready for the recipe.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined to ensure even distribution of leavening and seasoning.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the whole milk and eggs until smooth, then gradually stir in the melted butter to combine all wet ingredients evenly.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold with a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the pancakes fluffy.
- Cook Pancakes: Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Pour approximately ½ cup of batter for each pancake into the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip the pancake and cook the other side for an additional 1 minute or until golden brown.
- Serve: Serve the pancakes warm, topped generously with fresh sliced strawberries and whipped cream for a classic strawberry shortcake flavor.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough pancakes; lumps are okay.
- Use a non-stick skillet or lightly grease the pan to prevent sticking.
- Adjust the heat as necessary to cook pancakes evenly without burning.
- Fresh strawberries can be macerated with a little sugar for extra sweetness if desired.
