...Buttermilk not required! What? You might be saying, hear me out - how many of us have buttermilk on hand on a regular basis? Not many! Keeping it simple is what I strive to do, so in this case, we only need milk and vinegar to make these delicious fluffy pancakes!
When I was a kid, my favourite thing to do on a Saturday morning was to make pancakes for my family. I used to go to my mom while she was still asleep to get the recipe. When I want to treat somebody, pancakes and waffles are always on the top of the list! Especially when they are topped with strawberry compote!
Strawberry Compote
Forget about the maple syrup, get out those strawberries and make an easy compote! This is pancake UPLEVELING my friends, I even added some coconut whip to the top! Delicious!
The best thing about compote you only need 2 ingredients - Strawberries and Coconut Sugar. Brown Sugar also works here.
Stewing berries with some sugar just brings out wonderful flavours and makes such a great addition to your breakfast! You can even use this compote for oatmeals, yogurts and cakes!

You most likely have all these ingredients at the ready:
- Milk
- Vinegar (I used Apple Cider Vinegar)

The batter comes together in less 10 minutes! I love this recipe because there is no fuss! Don't get me started on the taste! The perfect combination of buttery goodness with a slight hit of sweetness from the sugar.
