Suggestions for Putting a Twist on It

This doesn’t have to stay a three-ingredient strawberry pancake recipe!

(And, if you happen to have forgotten to pick up some strawberry milk at the store, you can always make strawberry milk yourself with some milk and strawberry syrup. You can do the same with any flavor syrup, such as using chocolate milk for chocolate strawberry pancakes.) 

You can easily make these in a wide variety of flavors by simply using a different flavor of muffin mix. This can be a great way to offer a wide variety of pancake flavors and simply never get tired of pancakes again. 

Don’t forget that the sky is the limit when it comes to mix-ins for your pancakes. You can have a lot of fun by mixing in things like chopped nuts, chocolate chips, your favorite candies, and any of your favorite fresh fruits. 

This strawberry pancake recipe is great for hiding some vegetable puree to help make it easier to feed picky eaters. A bit of carrot puree will go completely unnoticed here. 

Want to fluff them up a bit more and kick the tang up a notch? Try mixing in some Greek yogurt or sour cream in place of half the milk for a super fluffy slightly tangy flavor.

What Can I Serve With 3 Ingredient Pancakes?

Pancakes are packed with possibilities for serving that are truly limited by only your imagination.

These pancakes go amazingly well with whipped cream, fresh fruit, ice cream, syrup, honey, and anything else sweet you can think of. Don’t forget to add a nice pat of butter if you want to have an even more decadent strawberry pancake!

Storing Leftovers

Leftover pancakes are great for freezing and reheating in the microwave for a quick and easy make-ahead breakfast. Pancakes are truly one of the best options for this. You can save your leftover pancakes in the freezer in a zipper freezer bag until you are ready to use them for up to 3 months in your freezer.

Insanely easy and delicious to make, these 3 ingredient strawberry pancakes can be made in a snap. Muffin mixes are the secret here to making super fluffy and tasty pancakes in the morning.

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 7 minutes
Total Time 7 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 package of muffin mix, strawberry flavored
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup Strawberry Milk (see notes)
  • Fresh strawberries (optional)
  • Oil, nonstick pan spray or butter for frying.

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix together the mix, an egg and the milk.
  2. Stir until just mixed.
  3. Add in the fresh strawberries if using.
  4. Heat a skillet up with a tablespoon of oil or butter and drop the batter onto the pan.
  5. Cook the pancakes until you see bubbles forming in the batter on the top of the pancakes. Flip and continue to cook about two more minutes or until golden brown on the bottom.
  6. Remove from the pan and serve. Garnish with fresh strawberries, whipped cream, and/or drizzled syrup.

Notes

1. Strawberry milk is ideal here to use, but regular milk will do just fine as well. The recipe calls for 1/2 a cup of milk, but you may want to add slightly more, just to loosen the batter more to a pancake batter consistency. Depending on the mix that you use, feel free to add 1/8 - 1/4 of cup if needed.
2. Adding extra strawberries to the batter level up the nutrition and bring even more fresh flavor to the pancakes.

3. Keep an eye on the pancakes as they may burn easily due to the sugar content in the muffin mix.
