While the sauce cooks, make your pancake batter.
Pancake Instructions
In a large mixing bowl. mix together the dry ingredients for the pancakes - the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another mixing bowl, mix together the buttermilk, vanilla extract, eggs, and melted butter.
Then, pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Mix until just until the pancake batter is mixed, batter will be lumpy.
Heat a non-stick pan over a low-medium heat and coat it with oil. Once the pan is hot, use a ¼ cup measure to scoop and drop the batter into the pan.
Cook the pancakes until the top surface forms bubbles. Flip and cook until the other side is golden brown. Adjust your stove top heat accordingly as you cook to ensure you don't burn the pancakes.
When ready to serve, drizzle the warmed strawberry sauce over your pancakes.
