Good to know

Chef's tip

🥞🍓 For an indulgent touch, you can also fold chocolate chips or chopped nuts into the batter before cooking the pancakes. It adds a pleasant crunch and extra flavor. 🍫🥜

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Yes

Very good, up to 2 months in freezer bags between sheets of parchment paper.

Storage : How long does it keep?

Keep 2 to 3 days max in an airtight container in the fridge.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Yes

The batter can be made the day before, kept in the fridge in an airtight container.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

Variations

Replace the strawberries with blueberries, raspberries or sliced bananas.
Add a pinch of cinnamon or a little vanilla extract to the batter.
Serve with butter and honey instead of maple syrup.

Mistakes to avoid

Overworking the batter: mix until smooth, no more, to keep the pancakes fluffy.
Cooking over heat that is too high: the outside browns before the inside is cooked. Keep the heat at medium, about 2 minutes per side.
Flipping too early: wait until the underside is golden, with bubbles on the surface.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get really fluffy pancakes?

Whisk the eggs with the milk, then add the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt until you have a smooth batter. Gently fold in the melted butter. The baking powder gives the rise and the fluffy texture.

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat, pour in a ladleful of batter and cook about 2 minutes per side, until the pancake is golden. The recipe's quantities make six pancakes.

How much batter should I use per pancake?

One ladleful of batter per pancake is enough: it makes a thick, even round. With the recipe's quantities, expect six pancakes. Repeat with the rest of the batter, keeping the skillet over medium heat.

How do I serve pancakes with strawberries and syrup?

Stack the pancakes, slipping slices of fresh strawberries between the layers, then drizzle generously with maple syrup. Serve right away, while they are hot.
