Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups All-Purpose Flour
  • ¼ cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • ½ tsp Baking Soda
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 Large Egg
  • ¼ cup Melted Unsalted Butter
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups Fresh Strawberries, sliced
  • 2 tbsp Granulated Sugar (for macerating strawberries)
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice (optional)
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream (or Heavy Whipping Cream)
  • 2 tbsp Powdered Sugar (Confectioners’ Sugar)
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract (for whipped cream)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Sweet Strawberry Topping: Wash and slice the fresh strawberries, hull them, and cut into bite-sized pieces. In a medium bowl, mix the sliced strawberries with granulated sugar and optional lemon juice. Toss gently to coat and let the mixture sit at room temperature for at least 15-30 minutes.
  2. Whisk Up Your Fluffy Pancake Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate medium bowl, blend the milk, large egg, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and gently stir until just combined.
  3. Cook Your Golden Pancakes: Preheat a non-stick griddle or a large frying pan over medium-low to medium heat. Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  4. Whip Up Your Creamy Topping: Chill your mixing bowl and whisk in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. Pour the cold heavy cream into the chilled bowl and beat on medium-low speed, gradually increasing to medium-high. Add powdered sugar and vanilla, continuing to beat until soft or stiff peaks form.
  5. Assemble Your Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes: Stack 2-3 warm pancakes on individual plates, layer with macerated strawberries and their syrup, and top with whipped cream. Garnish with extra strawberry slices or mint if desired.

Notes

Store leftover pancakes and toppings in separate airtight containers in the fridge.
