Pancakes With Fresh Strawberries

AmyZoe's Note:

The Amish know how to make a delicious pancake. This is probably the lightest, fluffiest pancake I've ever eaten, and it didn't require beating the egg whites. The recipe really does call for a tablespoon of vanilla (I thought it was a typo too). These are so simple there's no excuse to use pancake mix again. You can make them with or without the whipped cream and strawberries. Recipe from The Amish Cook at Home. Serving size is estimated because it wasn't listed.

These are very good pancakes! I usually make thinner ones, but these are very fluffy and light so we enjoyed them. Were good with strawberries and whipped cream as well as butter and maple syrup. Made for I Recommend Tag.

Had a bunch of exceptional strawberries from the Farmers' Market & had some of 'em on these 'cakes with a little dab of whipped cream ~ Very, very satisfying! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed in I Recommend recipe tag]

That's a lot of vanilla but it made them taste so good. DH said they were sweet but maybe it's the vanilla that does it. Because there's no sugar in them. The texture was perfect. I got beautiful pancakes. Thanks AmyZoe :) Made for I Recommend tag game
