Fresh Fruits

Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, swirling to coat the surface.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Bacon Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook Bacon

    In a separate skillet, cook the bacon strips over medium heat until crispy, turning occasionally. This should take about 6-8 minutes. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess grease.

Fruit Preparation

  1. 7

    Prepare Fresh Fruits

    While the pancakes and bacon are cooking, rinse the strawberries and blueberries under cold water. Hull and slice the strawberries, and slice the banana into rounds.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve the Dish

    Stack the pancakes on a serving plate, top with crispy bacon, and arrange the fresh fruits on the side. Enjoy warm with syrup if desired.
