Ingredients

Scale

1 cup fresh strawberries (pureed, plus extra for topping)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk (or regular milk)
1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Puree the fresh strawberries in a blender until smooth.
In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, combine buttermilk, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and strawberry puree.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; lumps are fine.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and coat with butter or oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake and cook until bubbles form (about 2-3 minutes). Flip and cook until golden brown (another 1-2 minutes).
Serve hot topped with fresh strawberry slices and maple syrup if desired.
