Ingredients
  

  • 3 Cups Boxed Red Velvet Cake Mix
  • 1 Cup All Purpose Flour
  • 4 Large Eggs
  • ¼ Cup Vegetable/Canola Oil
  • 1 ¼ Cup Milk
To Decorate
  • Powdered Sugar
  • Maple Syrup
  • Butter
  • Fresh Strawberries

Method
 

  1. Start by combining all your pancake ingredients in a large bowl. Whisk everything together using a hand whisk until combined, but don't over-mix. A little lumpy is good!
  2. Heat up two frying pans on a low heat and brush with some butter or oil. Scoop about 1/2 cup batter into each pan. Fry for 3 minutes or so, until the bubbles on top have popped and the bottom looks set. These pancakes take longer to cook than a regular pancake, but are more prone to burning so take care!
  3. Flip, then let cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside. Keep warm by placing in the oven at a very low heat (120℉/50℃).
  4. Serve with fresh strawberries, maple syrup and powdered sugar - or whatever else you like!
