Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 4 Tbsp melted butter
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen strawberries (chopped into small pieces)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, stir together all the dry ingredients. In another bowl, stir together all the wet ingredients. Add dry ingredients to the wet and stir until just combined. Fold in the strawberries. The batter will be thick. You can thin the batter with 1-2 tablespoons of milk if desired.
- Preheat a griddle or large frying pan “over medium heat”. Pour ¼ cup pancake batter onto the cooking surface and cook until bubbly on top and the edges are brown, approx 2-4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook for 2-3 more minutes.
- Serve with healthy butter and your choice of honey, maple syrup, or Homemade Whipped Cream.
Notes
You have plenty of substitution options for this pancake recipe!
- Flour: All-purpose flour would definitely work instead of whole wheat flour. I haven’t tried gluten-free flour here, but I bet a gluten-free all-purpose flour would make some yummy gluten free strawberry pancakes.
- Milk and Butter: Substitute buttermilk, kefir, or even yogurt. You may have to add an additional tablespoon or two if you use yogurt. You can also use a dairy-free substitute like almond milk and replace the butter with melted coconut oil.
- Honey: I understand if your budget is too tight for honey, so both granulated sugar and brown sugar will work, although try reducing them by half at first to see if you can get away with using less. If you’re using granulated sugar, add it to the dry ingredients instead of the wet. Maple syrup would also be a delicious sweetener.
- Strawberries: Any fruit would work, really. Sliced bananas, chopped apples, blueberries, diced mango, chopped peaches, flaked coconut…just use whatever you have! You can even skip the fruit if you don’t have any on hand. These pancakes are delicious either way!
- In a crunch for time? Try making this strawberry pancake recipe in a sheet pan in the oven! Yes, it really works!
