Delicious and fluffy cherry pancakes topped with crunchy almonds, perfect for a sweet breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1¼ cups milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter, plus extra for cooking
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh cherries, pitted and halved
  • ¼ cup sliced almonds
  • Maple syrup, for serving
  • Powdered sugar, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined (do not overmix).
  4. Gently fold in the cherries.
  5. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
  6. Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
  7. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Serve pancakes topped with sliced almonds, maple syrup, and powdered sugar if desired.

Notes

  • Fresh cherries can be substituted with frozen cherries; just thaw and drain excess liquid first.
  • Toast almonds lightly in a dry skillet for extra flavor.
  • For fluffier pancakes, allow batter to rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
