Clean the strawberries, chop up add to a bowl and sprinkle about a tablespoon of sugar over it and set aside to release its juice.

In another bowl, whisk buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla extract, separate the eggs and add the yolks and place the white eggs in another bowl and set aside. But if you don't want to whip the white eggs just add the whole eggs to the buttermilk mixture.

In another bowl, whisk all the dry ingredients, flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

Combine both the dry and wet ingredients, so make a small hole in the flour mixture and pour the buttermilk, and whisk. If you think the batter is too thick add a little bit of milk.

Add the strawberry (with its juice) and combine.

Whisk the egg white while a whisk or handheld mixer, whisk the egg until stiff peak.

Gently fold the egg white into the batter and set it aside.

Heat a griddle or frying pan to medium heat, grease with butter or cooking spray or oil, once it gets hot scoop about ¼ cup of the pancake mixture and cook on the griddle.

Cook for about 2-3 minutes the batter bubbles flip and cook the other side until golden brown or until you the color you desired. Cook the rest of the dough and serve.

Serve and enjoy!

You can pair it with strawberry and syrup/honey or your choice of condiments and fruits.
