Strawberries & buttermilk pancakes

Strawberries & buttermilk pancakes are a delightful and fluffy breakfast treat that combines the richness of buttermilk with the sweet, juicy burst of fresh strawberries. Perfect for a lazy weekend morning or a special brunch, these pancakes are sure to be a hit with family and friends.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Strawberries:
- Wash, hull, and slice the strawberries. Set them aside.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of self-raising flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Whisk together to ensure they're well-mixed.
3. Prepare the Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of buttermilk, 1/4 cup of melted butter, and 1 egg until well blended.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until the mixture is just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
5. Cook the Pancakes:
- Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of butter or cooking spray.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, approximately 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
6. Add Strawberries:
- Serve the pancakes warm, topped with sliced strawberries. You can also mix some of the strawberries directly into the batter before cooking if desired.
7. Serve and Enjoy:
- Optionally, you can drizzle the pancakes with maple syrup, honey, or a dusting of powdered sugar for added sweetness.

Tips:

- Ensure that all your ingredients are at room temperature before you start mixing. This helps in achieving a smoother batter.

- Do not overmix the batter. Mix just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Overmixing can lead to tough pancakes.

- For best results, cook the pancakes on a preheated skillet or griddle over medium heat. This ensures even cooking and prevents burning.

- Only flip the pancake when bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look slightly set. Flipping too soon can cause the pancake to break apart.

- To keep the pancakes warm while you cook the remaining batter, place them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at a low temperature (around 200°F or 93°C).

- For an extra flavor boost, you can add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.

- If you are using frozen strawberries, make sure to thaw and drain them well before adding to the batter to avoid excess moisture.

Enjoy your delicious strawberries & buttermilk pancakes hot off the griddle with a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, or an extra handful of fresh strawberries. This breakfast treat is sure to become a favorite in your recipe collection.
