Fluffy Pancakes with Berry Topping are soft, airy pancakes made from scratch and topped with a warm, sweet medley of mixed berries — perfect for a comforting breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Butter or oil, for cooking
  • For the berry topping:
  • 2 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 tbsp sugar or honey
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water (optional, for thickening)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  2. In another bowl, mix milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; lumps are okay.
  4. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on both sides.
  6. For the berry topping, combine berries, sugar (or honey), and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  7. Simmer for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally. If desired, add the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce. Cook for 1–2 more minutes.
  8. Serve pancakes stacked and topped with warm berry sauce.

Notes

  • Use buttermilk instead of regular milk for extra fluffiness and tang.
  • Make the berry topping ahead and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon or lemon zest to the batter for extra flavor.
  • Top with whipped cream, yogurt, or maple syrup for added indulgence.
