strawberry + balsamic skillet pancake

 

for those mornings when you are craving pancakes but don't feel like standing over the stove flipping pancake after pancake, why not just bake a skillet pancake? think a cake version of a pancake, probably good enough to be served as cake too (at least according to my mom who couldn't get enough of this recipe)! it comes together within minute's as it uses bob's red mill's new homestyle pancake & waffle mix as the base. the new homestyle "just add water" mix tastes amazing on its own, but i wouldn't be modest marce if i didn't elevate things just a little bit. the mix is made with the same high quality & wholesome ingredients as found in bob's red mill's other grains.

this slightly sweetened pancake is baked in a buttered cast iron skillet & topped with balsamic marinated strawberries. it bakes up so fluffy (like a pancake should be) & you don't have to flip pancakes! simply pop it in the oven & bake as you brew your morning coffee. great for a weekend breakfast, but easy enough for a weekday breakfast too! served with balsamic marinated strawberries, a dusting of powdered sugar & a drizzle of maple syrup.

p.s. i will be rolling out my next episode of modest kitchen over on instagram this week to demonstrate how quick this treat is! stay tuned.
