Can you use frozen strawberries?
LisaTuesday 27th July 2021
Hi Claire
We’ve not tried this with frozen strawberries, but it should work if you defrost them first and drain off any excess juice. Hope this helps.
Sophie RoseThursday 22nd April 2021
How many grams is a serving please
HollyTuesday 27th April 2021
Hey Sophie Rose, We work out our recipes on the serving size not by weight. To work out your own weight of a serving you would need to make the finished dish and divide servings, as the weight will vary due to variation of ingredients and water content it’s not something we can do as an exact measure. If you scroll down to the recipe card at the bottom of the page on the website there is a little arrow by servings and you can alter up or down to serve more or less people. Hope that helps!

Hi, this looks so nice, I can’t wait to make it. I just wondered once it’s been in the fridge, do you eat it cold or heat it up? If so, how long for? Thank you 🙂
HollyMonday 29th March 2021
Hi Kate, you can eat the pancakes cold or reheat the pancake just pop it in the microwave for 30 second intervals until heated through, hope that helps!
DebFriday 19th February 2021
Mine went very soggy! Any idea why?
SharonMonday 22nd February 2021
Hi Deb, it sounds like it may be undercooked. Your oven needs to be preheated and up to temperature before you put the traybake in and if you think it’s under cooked, just put it back in the oven for a little longer until cooked right through and golden. Do hope this helps.
CarolTuesday 16th February 2021
I’ve just made this with skimmed milk, blueberries and milk chocolate chips, it worked well, too well, I’ve had five slices already! Oh well, it is pancake day!
SharonWednesday 17th February 2021
Hi Carol, thanks for telling us about your variation on this recipe, it sounds good. Perfect for Pancake Day!
JessicaMonday 15th February 2021
Hello, I tried putting a tbsp worth of peanut butter powder in and it worked really well! I also was wondering if they would be freezer friendly?
HollyTuesday 16th February 2021
Hi Jessica, we don’t recommend freezing this recipe but if you have any leftovers, make sure to pop them in a container with a lid and they can be kept for approximately 3 days or so. Hope that helps!
EmilyThursday 4th February 2021
If I were to use sugar instead of sweetener how much should I put in? Will it still be a tablespoon. My husband cannot have artificial sweetners due to a health condition.
HollyFriday 5th February 2021
Hi Emily, We use a granulated sweetener that is crunchy and weighs like for like with sugar so it would be a straight swap in terms of weight of sweetener to sugar. Have a look at this article it explains the differences between the sweeteners so it might help HERE
EmilyFriday 4th December 2020
Could you use another fruit like apples if you cooked them down before hand and ditched the white chocolate for some cinnamon?
SharonFriday 4th December 2020
Hi Emily, you could try using other berries such as blueberries or raspberries, as they would cook in a similar way to strawberries. I wouldn’t recommend using cooked apple as it would be too wet and heavy in this recipe and the pancake mixture probably wouldn’t cook properly.Thanks for getting in touch.
LoisFriday 23rd October 2020
Could you substitue the flour for blended oats?
SharonFriday 23rd October 2020
Hi Lois, we haven’t tried this ourselves but it could work and we’d be really interested to hear how you got on! Thanks for getting in touch with your question.
Margaret OliphantSunday 3rd January 2021
I made this using rolled oats and blended them so they had the same texture as flour and it worked really well.
SharonMonday 4th January 2021
Hi Margaret,
thanks so much for taking the time to let us know that using blended oats works well in this recipe. It will be a useful tip for others I’m sure.
DeeSunday 4th October 2020
How long can you keep the pancakes for? Or have they got to be ate the same day ?
HollyWednesday 7th October 2020
Hey Dee, If you have any leftovers, make sure to pop them in a container with a lid. You can keep leftovers for approximately 3 days or so. Hope that helps!
Sarah SThursday 24th September 2020
Could I use skimmed milk instead of semi skimmed?
Thanks
SharonFriday 25th September 2020
Hi Sarah,
We haven’t tried this with skimmed milk but it should work fine. Hope you enjoy the recipe and thanks for your question.
Kirstie lawrenceSunday 20th September 2020
Could you substitute half of the milk for vanilla quark?
SharonMonday 21st September 2020
Hi Kirstie, I wouldn’t advise substituting half of the milk with quark as it would make the batter too thick and the Strawberry Pancake Traybake would probably be too solid. Thanks for your question and hope you give this recipe a try.
Pete HSunday 13th September 2020
The tin/baking tray sizes would be really useful in your baking recipes.
LisaSunday 13th September 2020
Thanks for your comment. The size should have been included in the write up, but mistakes do happen! You need a 33 x 23cm tray for this recipe. We will update the website accordingly.
Pat ParrSaturday 12th September 2020
What approx size tray is used please?
LisaSunday 13th September 2020
