Strawzleberry Pancakes

*This is a quick and easy pancake recipe that can be made with ingredients you should have on hand. Perfect for spur-of-the-moment Sunday breakfasts! The strawberries can be substituted for any yummy treat: fresh or frozen blueberries, mini chocolate chips, banana slices... the possibilities are endless!

The pancake warmer & butter bell are 2 of my favorite things. My kids can fight over them when I'm dead.

Ingredients

1 C flour (I use some combination of wheat and all-purpose, usually about 50/50)
1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
1 Tsp Baking Powder
1/4 Tsp Baking Soda
1/4 Tsp Salt
1 Egg, beaten
1 C Buttermilk
2 Tbsp Oil
A Handful of Strawberries, sliced thin

Directions

1. Combine dry ingredients. Combine wet ingredients separately. Add wet ingredients to dry and stir until just moist. Batter should be lumpy.

2. Heat a griddle or skillet on medium heat, add pancake batter and cook about two minutes on each side. Makes about 12 small pancakes.

Mom Tips:

If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can use a cup of milk with a tablespoon of lemon juice added and let sit for five minutes. If you do have buttermilk and don't use it that often, you can freeze it in one cup portions and take them out as you need them.

Double the recipe and freeze the leftovers for a quick breakfast. Just set them on a cloth napkin (so they don't get soggy) in the microwave for 30 seconds and enjoy.
