Elevate your breakfast with these thick, protein-packed yogurt pancakes topped with juicy oven-roasted strawberries and a dollop of vanilla-infused Skyr. A perfect blend of tangy, sweet, and fluffy textures that feels like a weekend treat.
Preheat your oven to 160°C (140°C fan/gas 3). Arrange the halved strawberries in a single layer on a lined baking tray. Zest and juice the lemon over the berries, sprinkle with caster sugar, and toss gently to coat. Roast for 40–45 minutes until the strawberries are darkened and sitting in their own syrupy juices. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 200g of the Skyr yogurt, the eggs, caster sugar, and milk until smooth. Sift in the self-raising flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined into a thick batter, being careful not to over-mix.
Heat a small amount of vegetable oil or butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, ladle 2–3 tablespoons of batter per pancake into the pan. Cook for 1–2 minutes until small bubbles appear on the surface and the underside is golden. Flip and cook for another minute until fluffy and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Stir the vanilla extract into the remaining 50g of Skyr yogurt. To serve, stack the warm pancakes on plates, top with a generous dollop of the vanilla yogurt and several spoonfuls of the roasted strawberries. Drizzle with honey if you like.
For the fluffiest results, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before frying. If you don't have Skyr, a thick Greek yogurt makes an excellent substitute. The roasted strawberries can be made in advance and will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
