Strawberry shortcake for breakfast? Maybe not. But these stacks of fluffy strawberry pancakes topped with chopped strawberries and whipped cream sure come close.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, yogurt, milk, melted butter and extracts until combined. Pour into the bowl of dry ingredients, and stir with a whisk until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Grease lightly with butter. When the butter starts to sizzle, drop in ¼ cup portions of batter.
Dot the surface of the pancakes with chopped strawberries. Cook for about 2 minutes or until a few bubbles start to form on the top, then gently flip over and continue cooking until underside is golden brown, about 1-2 minutes longer. Transfer the finished pancakes to a baking tray in a warm oven. Repeat this process until the batter is finished, re-greasing the pan as needed.
To serve, stack two or three pancakes onto each plate. Garnish each stack with a spoonful of chopped strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream. For those with a sweet tooth, drizzle with a little maple syrup or dust with icing sugar before digging in.
