Ingredients

For the Berry Filling & Topping

  • 2 tbsp Honeyberry Freeze Dried Cranberry Pieces
  • 2 tbsp Honeyberry Freeze Dried Blueberry Pieces
  • 2 tbsp Honeyberry Freeze Dried Raspberry Pieces
  • 2-3 tbsp hot water
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

For the Pancakes

  • 200 g plain flour
  • 2 tbsp caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • Pinch salt
  • 2 medium eggs
  • 250 ml milk
  • 50 g melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
  • 1 tsp Honeyberry Madagascan Vanilla Extract (optional)

Instructions

Make the Berry Filling

  • In a small bowl, combine the freeze-dried cranberries, blueberries, and raspberries.
  • Add 2–3 tablespoons of hot water and stir gently until the berries soften and form a compote-like texture.
  • Sweeten with honey or maple syrup if desired. Set aside.

Make the Pancake Batter

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, caster sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using).
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. A few lumps are fine (don’t overmix).

Cook the Pancakes

  • Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
  • Pour a small ladle of batter into the pan. Spoon a little berry compote into the centre of the pancake, then cover with a bit more batter to seal the fruit inside.
  • Cook for 2–3 minutes, until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
  • Repeat with the remaining batter.

Serve

  • Stack the pancakes on plates. Top with extra berry compote and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, if desired.
  • Enjoy warm and fluffy, bursting with fruity goodness!
