Buttermilk pancakes with glazed strawberries are a delightful breakfast treat that combines the fluffy texture of homemade pancakes with the sweet and slightly tart flavor of glazed strawberries. This recipe is simple and sure to be a hit with family and friends.
Instructions:
- Wash and hull the strawberries. Slice them into halves or quarters, depending on their size. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, cinnamon, and sugar. Mix the dry ingredients well to ensure even distribution.
- In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs.
- Add the beaten eggs and buttermilk to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until the mixture is just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of butter or cooking spray.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer cooked pancakes to a warm plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- In a small saucepan, combine the sliced strawberries with a little sugar or honey if desired (this step is optional but recommended for added sweetness).
- Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries soften and release their juices, creating a glaze. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat once the strawberries are nicely glazed and tender.
- Stack the warm pancakes on serving plates.
- Spoon the glazed strawberries over the pancakes, ensuring each stack gets a generous amount of fruit and glaze.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious buttermilk pancakes with glazed strawberries!

Buttermilk pancakes with glazed strawberries FAQ:
Leftover pancakes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 2 months.
Pancakes are done when they are golden brown and bubbles form on the surface, with the edges looking set. Cooking time is typically 2-3 minutes per side.
Yes, if you don't have self-raising flour, you can use all-purpose flour and add 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt for each cup of all-purpose flour.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by mixing 1 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar and letting it sit for about 5 minutes.
To prevent sticking, ensure the skillet is properly heated, and use a small amount of butter or non-stick cooking spray. Avoid moving the pancakes until they are fully set on one side.
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure not to overmix the pancake batter; this can make the pancakes tough. Mix until just combined.
- For best results, use fresh strawberries. If they're out of season, you can use frozen strawberries, but make sure to thaw and drain them first.
- Preheat your pan or griddle properly to ensure even cooking. The surface should be hot enough that a few drops of water sizzle and evaporate quickly.
- Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven (around 200°F or 95°C) while you cook the rest.
- You can lightly grease your griddle or skillet with butter or a neutral oil to prevent sticking.
